1970 SPL311: There is a little box with two pins, one marked ign, screwed to
the right side of the steering column. It contains a bi-metallic strip and
contact, but also has a thin copper strip fuse on the back side (which happens
to be burned in two). Someone on the list said that it was a voltage
regulator for the gas and temp gauges. Question: What does it protect? The
gauges, or the gas tank sender? What happens if I bi-pass it? Can anyone
find this component on the SPL311 wiring diagram? Thanks, Girault Jones
