I didn't bother to note down that timer 'fix'.

I can't see any reason to have an idiot light telling me to go spend
money every 80K or so. I go spend enough money when something is
'really' broken.

lol I agree with you Mike, that is why I have not done might yet.
I think that some people just like everything functioning.
Oh and some people need reminders to tell them when to have their oil
changed! ;-)
I might do mine one day just for fun.
