Thanks for the concern of us older car owners.  I think that our
un-sophisicated mechines could care less about the year (fortunately). 
The OBC only gives month/day information and I *don't want* my engine to
know how old it is!   Of course if you really want to final word contact
the DME guru - Jim Conforti.
