Re: Voltage regulator
If you are running an alternator you do not need a voltage regulator. That is internal in the alternator.

Re: Voltage regulator
There will be a separate one for the instruments though. It’s usually fastened to the back of the speedo.

Re: Voltage regulator
Hi Doug. Do you have an Alternator or a Dynamo?

Re: Voltage regulator
Hi Doug. As you have an alternator you will need to look for the regulator behind the Speedo. Would be worth changing anyway, as the new ones are solid state rather than Bi-Metal. You should have a Negative earth Moke, so use one of these :- http://www.somerfordmini.co.uk/eshop/in ... ts_id=4919

Re: Voltage regulator
I fee I should ask as it’s not been mentioned yet, but why are you looking for a regulator?

Re: Voltage regulator
Doug, Early Australian Mokes used an alternator that has a seperate regulator, i.e. not built into the alternator. You need to work out which type you have before you spend any money.
