If you drop down the central instrument panel, on my R.H drive car the voltage stabiliser is at the front r.h side, near to the water temp gauge itself.
If you have a reasonable voltmeter, I think the "stabilised voltage" should be 10 volts. If the stabiliser was faulty, it should affect the oil and petrol gauges as well.
Hope this helps.

There are quite a few guys on here that have used and recommend those, give that a go, hopefully it should sort out those issues.
I built my own solid state stabilizer and got it inside the old case so that it looks the same, more just for fun really, and the CoolCat shipping costs to the UK are high as with anything from the US unfortunately.

Any sources for door weatherstripping, body to door?

got Coolcat's IVR installed yesterday. Preliminary testing in the garage looks positive.
My heater valve looks nothing like the C16559 pictured in the online catalogs. Mine is vacuum actuated and it's stuck open.
The new speedo driven gear and housing should be here today.
That's my update for now.

Jon,
I already replied to him. The original heater valves for the S type are no longer available.
What he needs is a Normally CLOSED, opens with Vacuum, Heater valve with 5/8" ports and a 1/8" to 1/4" vacuum port.
you can get those in autoparts stores locally.
What he may have is a Normally OPEN, heater valve, or a bad heater valve. Easy to replace.
the valve in his picture looks like one from a GM car, (picture below), but it doesn't matter as long as it is NORMALLY CLOSED / OPENS WITH VACUUM.
