Thanks to Tom, John, Gordon, Jones, Dan, and Bob for their responses to my
electrical question. You know, I really enjoy the list every day. When I
don't have time to work on the car, at least I can talk to somebody about it.
But my curiousity is aroused over this devilish little voltage regulator. It
has a bi-metallic spring with a contact inside. It's either open or closed.
How can it regulate the current to the water temp and gas gauges in a
constant manner? It seems like it would have two modes - either open or
closed. Wouldn't that make the gauges jump when it activated?
Thanks, Girault Jones
