odometer

I have been keeping careful track of my mileage, particularly using WVO, and I just saw that my last tank of WVO was near empty on 170 miles when it normally goes to 250! Concerned, today I watched my odometer and saw that it was moving at only half the distance I moved. That is, on my 13 mile drive this morning the odometer showed about a 7 mile change, a 2 to 1 ratio. This must have just happened. I assume I will be doing some odometer work soon, as my mileage is something important for me to look at as I make changes and this may just be the beginning of it failing completely. I will search for some advice on repairing the odometer on this site. Maybe while I am at it I can fix the tachometer also.... Yet another project!
