odometer problem fixed!
A nice gentleman in TX sold me a 94/95 v6 cluster with a mileage very
close to mine (101K vs 108K) which I just installed. About 30 mins work
which included swapping the bezel and clear front from the old to the
new gauge pod as mine has an aluminum inlay and the new pod's clear
part was badly scratched (Which he told me about beforehand)
Just took a test drive, and both odo and trip are working! Not bad for
not even $35 including shipping. I now wven have a spare bezel which I
am considering painting aluminum to match my inlay.
Now I can see hwo many miles I put on pony again. :-)

Not that handy I fear. Not about ready to disassemble that cluster and
run the risk of breaking it... :-) Thanks for the tip though...
I looked at that but haven't figured out how to do it. No data on it to
be found anywhere, neither Chilton no rmy Ford service manual...

I don't know that I'd sweat 7K miles.
If you really wanted to run some mileage up, you could probably remove the
vehicle speed sensor from the transmission and spin it using a rotary tool
for a few hours/days with the key switched on. This would register speed
and mileage and get you back to where you should be. It's some work, but
you don't have to tear the dash back apart, nor figure out how to get the
odometer apart.

I'm not really sweating it, but it's an inconvienence as I keep a
mileage log for tax reasons. Not worth mucking with that sensor. Doing
the gauge cluster removal is easy. 10 minutes work. If you can get the
headlight switch off that is. :-) Done it about 3 times now...
