Well to start out, the Odometer doesn't work anymore on my 90 325. But i knew that when i got the car. But because of that, my new problem is even more important. I noticed that since my last fill-up (3 days ago) my gas gauge hasn't really moved, and i've driven it all over town in those 3 days. Is there a way I can just replace the whole cluster AND get a new OD, or will I have to replace individual parts.

danny , I,M new to this but I believe that you Odom. prob. is the small cogs in the speedometer cluster . the small one has broken , as it is designed to (you can only hope tthat it didn't fall into litle peices that damaged the larger ones-they can all be replaced with ease. The fuel gauge is probably the SI Board it has a small Ni-Cad rechargeable batt. in it--this csn be replaced (requires soldering) or replace the board(requires $$$) or get use to how it works (like I have until i fix it) ....of course this may not be it at all. hoh

yeah...it seems to be working somewhat...just not while the car is in motion...it seems like it wont change until the car has been turned off and turned back on again. Then again, maybe it's just me, but it just seems like i've been doing alot of driving and it hasn't really moved too far from Full...i think it's around 3/4 of a tank now.
