My 84 Camper blows the voltage stabilizer (Really a 10 volt regulator which
provides a constant 10 volts to the water temp. low water circuit and the
fuel gage.) about once or twice a year.  The last time the regulator was
putting out 8 volts rather than 10, and the result was a constant blinking
of the red light and the temp. gage reading about one fourth scale rather
than the usual half scale.  I believe that the gas gage was also reading
low.  A new voltage stabilizer solved the problem.

Question 1.  Does anyone have any ideas about why the voltage stabilizer
keeps blowing?

Question 2.  Does anyone have a source of inexpensive 10 volt regulators?
I once used a 12 volt regulator from Radio Shack with the result that
everything read high, but it got me by until I could find a replacement
part. I had to reverse the leads (flip it over) to make it work.

Thanks in advance.
