I just brought my sending unit in (no I didn't pull it just to reply.) and the values for resistance are. (roughly, digital meter bouncing +/- .2 ohms) 216 ohms at one stop, and 14 ohms on the other.

I get more confussed the more I read what "Haynes Sez", You have a large difference in the resistance reading which should be correct. I would not suspect the sending unit is bad. If the unit is out,

Small correction: The fuel gauge and the temp gauge, at least on the later cars, are fed a constant 10V from the (you guessed it) voltage stabilizer mounted under the dash. I don't remember if the or

Even smaller correction... the voltage stabilizer is a "chopper", and so bounces between 12V and nothing. The resulting output is not constant, but drives a heavily damped or bimetallic meter to the

Wouldn't the hitek approach be to use a 10V zener??? Just Wondering Jim Mellander

I'm am wondering if anyone has replaced the voltage stabilizer with a three terminal regulator. This seems a more straight forward approch since no dropping resister needs to be added to protect the

No, the high tech approach would be to use the dual 6v batteries for most components in the car, then have a lead off of only one 6v cell running to a DC-DC transformer, which steps it up to 11.4 vo

All this is fine (esp. if you can calibrate the voltage regulator to a pretty sturdy component.. and 2) It's not "original"... Then you also miss the excitement of plugging the tach into the chopped

With a potentiometer you can easily make the regulator output adjustable if you must. Because of the design there is much variation from stabilizer to stabilizer. Is it?? True, for this reason I do

On the order of a turn signal flasher I would suspect. Not as sturdy as a transistorized one (in terms of cycles) but less sensitive to environment perhaps. Luckily the tach is not >supposed< to run
