Pat;
Looking at a drawing for the TR6, the stabilizer has a B and I terminal.
The B is a male tab and is the power in terminal. on a TR6 this is a solid
green wire.
The I terminal is a female tab and is the feed to the temp gauge and fuel
gauge. This is a lg/g wire
on the TR6.
The 2500 schematic that I have show the same wire hookups but does not
have wire colors marked on the instrument wires. It does show green as the
power feed from the heater switch.
The voltage stabilizer also must be grounded by the tab mounting screw.
It should also cut the
voltage out to about 10 volts. Any higher and the gauges will read high.
Lots of luck;
