[AT] Voltage regulator

[Ronald L. Cook]

Bill,
	I think you are right.  I have done the clean, adjust stuff.  Set the 
spring to pull hard enough it would not even come on line unless I 
turned on the lights.  And then it just stayed on line.
         Do you really think that yuppie, horsey place will replace that 
regulator?  I think they already have, once.  The package was not 
sealed.  I should have just left it.
