I have just spent some time running through the WM for the 15/60 and 16/60. There is no voltage stabiliser fitted to this vehicle. It is not concealed within any instrument - it is not there. Therefore, your only voltage control is the regulator itself.

Nice one. I am just concluding a mini-restoration for a customer. Went to fire up last night and the engine ran for 20 seconds and cut out, accompanied by a right squealing noise. "Tight so-and-so", I thought. Bolton to Yeadon with 20 seconds fuel left is cutting it a bit fine. Anyway, threw in a co...
