If anybody is interested I have found a source of solid state 10v IC
regulators in the UK - they cost about #1 each - initial testing shows
them to work brilliantly - and they won't go bang so often!

Bit of a strange one this. I am revisiting the problems I am having in a
reading on the fuel guage of my Mk1 Spit. (gave up last year!)
I recently purchase another fuel sender unit to test if its that but I was
reading in my 60s workshop manual that the voltage stabiliser should be
checked first. The input at the B terminal should be 12v (ie from the
battery) and yes it is. The output terminal T (which runs to the temp and
fuel guages) should be 10v. Mine is down at 5v, which is probably the
issue. Anyway, I have ordered a new one.
My question is that if the stabilizer is only providing a 5v output, why am
I getting correct readings on the temp guage but not fuel as they both use
the same feed?
