[6pack] Overvdriving gauges

Pete, the voltage regulator for the instruments is a small device attached to
the back of the speedo. It is secured by a single screw and it is probably
necessary to remove the speedo to get to it.

Hey Folks,

I suspect that I've got to much voltage to my gauges- full tank pegs the
needle WAY beyond full, and when bone dry reads 1/4 tank...temp gauge reads
~25-30% too hot, etc.

Now, I understand that for the 12-volt electrics, there is a resistor(?) that
limits to 10-volts for the gauges to prevent overdriving...

Can anyone tell me more about this, and where this voltage limiter is
located?

Thanks,

Pete
