Hi Randy how are you doing?
I appreciate the plug, but we haven't been selecting the year in the model/year dropdown much on this board. 1980 according to the first post. No temp comp circuitry.
Jarrod's model/year question is one thing that separates the Brickboard from the pre-packaged forum apps. I think it really goes a long way to keeping us on track when reading. I had to do a check whether the year was mentioned, by re-reading.
Another electrical thing about the 1980 is the use of a mechanical voltage stabilizer for the gauges. By '80 it should have been the solid state one inside the same old can, but who knows the history of the cluster repairs.

OK, here. The first is the back of the stabilizer. Next, the usual mechanical stabilizer using heated bimetal, and finally, a replacement unit with a 10-volt regulator chip inside.
