For what it's worth, I learned something today a lot of you certainly already
know.
I'd purchased a used TR4 electric temperature gauge for my '59 TR3A. With it
came the voltage stabilizer.
I learned from Dave at TRF today, however, that these were typically positive
ground. I have a negative ground car. What's happening is, my temp gauge is
reading at the top end (super hot)...before I start the car. Moreover, since
I hooked up my regular TR3 fuel gauge to the stabilizer too, and now it reads
at the completely full level without a drop of gas in the tank, I'm worried I
fried it.
I've ordered a later model negative ground voltage stabilizer. We'll see what
it cures. Any ideas?
