I believe mine broke in the same way, since the trip odometer was stuck at "000". Although after seeing the condition the gear material was in, I doubt it would have lasted much longer even if the reset button was never used.
Same here. Odo gear was my job last weekend and, yes, it was on the kitchen table.
This weekend end was the blower motor. The used one I put in a few months ago had completely seized so I put the old one back in having, hopefully, sorted out the poor connections that were stopping it from running.
Started her up for the first time in about 6 weeks, after being busy doing some re-plating work in the engine bay.
Looking like she should have another 10 (seat of the pants) horsepower
There's still a couple of things to finish off.
This dash message showed up on my 89 and sure enough, the fuel gauge was non-functional. I determined that the fuel gauge sensor was the culprit, so I removed the sensor, disassembled it, and found that the internal fuel level slide was stuck at the very top of the assembly. I freed the slide and reassembled and reinstalled the fuel level sensor.
Unfortunately, I was called away to work before I got a chance to test it, but I feel confident the problem was fixed.
Put new spark plugs in the 81, replaced a bad H4 headlight (for the wrong country though :banghead) and replaced the all metal filter in the 89's provent with a normal one.
Changed my oil today. After the oil change I started removing A/C parts for retrofit and repairs. Also found my alternator was previously replaced and I need to get the screws the hold on the cooling duct.
Also noticed I need the hats for my injector hoses.
PO replaced with clamps on the top half.

My engine has a very similar paint scheme.
