What you have described is a resistor, not a voltage regulator. It reduces voltage, but it does not regulate the output voltage. The voltage at the output will vary with the current drawn by the...

CHEAT!!! Most don't have a screw adjust, you have to bend a tab that sets tension on a spring.
Good work - that screw is there for a reason and it turns in both directions. You'll be glad you...
"I took your advise and adjusted the regulator down to 7.5 volts"
That's great - you are a brave man. Adjusting a regulator isn't that hard, but most people are afraid of getting in there and...
It is amazing how a topic will sit dormant for a long time, then we have several questions on that topic in just a short period of time.
Over the last week we worked with a gentleman on an...
"The temp gauge goes up much slower and rested at about 1/3 hot on the gauge."
Was that with the engine at running temperature? If it was; by Jove, You've got it!
One more set of info you...
[I]"The regulator I have to be used as a replacement regulator to the one not working reads 42.7 ohms ign to case, and 7 ohms ign to output."[/I
This is probably more than you want to know:

"I have a used instrument cluster with the attached voltage regulator, I will install that device... "
Hey, give it a shot. Some varieties of regulator used the tab on the case for a ground, so...
Good morning:
GMWillys is blowing smoke at you – I’m not a genius, I’ve just made enough mistakes to know where to look for the correct answer (well, at least sometimes).
The short answer –...
