Its really not hard to roll back the mileage. Just get something small but strong enough that wont break. If you look at the mileage numbers there are little teeth on the right side. It takes two clicks for a number to fully line up.
I replaced my cluster from a dx to a ex and used a tiny flathead to turn the numbers back. Cluster works and the mileage turns over no problem. Good luck
Where the original oil light switch was. Two of my buddies are using the same gauge and havent had a problem. Also when I had the b18c in the car the problem wasn't there. Kind of why I'm thinking it's the engine.

Good luck.
Well i oiled it up in motor oil for the night and took some 800 sand paper to the major rust spots. Next im gonna hone it, hopefully i could salvage it. If not i have a spare b18b i picked up a while ago. Not sure of its Condition though.
The b16 head has better casting so u will have better flow. The b18 is a taller block so u will have more torque. I'm not sure if the forged pistons will fit on the stock b18c rods. Also the b18c uses different rod bearings from all the other b series so it depends on if the ACL bearings are for...
