Thanks man! Didnt even think about that...

I just have to take the front cover off and look, right?

Are you kidding! lol
Dude, you sold a brand new SC!

A lot of miles in a SC is 250,000 +.
Until then, it's just the break in period.

1992 sc 300 with 226,000 miles ....came back from the dead recently......but going strong once again Keepin her till she is dead which I hope to keep her going at least past 300k

1998 sc 400- Just bought a couple mos ago w/76 k miles. You would swear this was a brand new car ...this will by garage queen/ weekend joy ride car..she's in mint cond (owned by a doctor) and staying that way



PS. How in the hell did that SC with 621,000 miles still have perfect needles??? Impossible..possibly could be a hoax ??
