<p class="MsoNormal">As a rule of thumb, Moss parts are crap. They only buy the cheapest half ass stuff they can find. And if there are issues they tend to ignore them. see if you can find a used one from one of the spares houses. If you need a referral,
I have had very good success with several.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:7.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">My fuel and temp gauges weren't moving so I put in a new voltage stabilizer I had on the shelf from sometime in the past. It came in a blue box marked British Spares. The
gauges read now, but the readings are very high compared to before, so problematic. I laid on my back with the engine running and tried to probe the stabilizer with a multimeter, but didn't get anywhere. I can try this again setting myself up better if
you can test it this way. I understand the stabilizer's function is to reduce battery voltage down to 10v for the gauges, so I presume you should see 10V on the I side. Masters' electrical book says its not so simple to test stabilizers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

written on it. Caerbont seems to be the manufacturer of Smiths instruments nowadays. Not sure which one TRF sells, but they're on backorder there anyway. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
