What's funny is that I have one Smiths electric gauge on my car, other than the ammeter -- and it's the fuel gauge. And I have even had to pull my dash and replace it entirely over the last decade. And it doesn't accurately reflect the gas level changes. And it's always annoyed me slightly. But I've never gotten around to wiring in the 10v regulator to make it work properly. Ain't that a perfect example of the shoemaker's children going barefoot.
