Andy, If you are using digital gages you are probably not affected by voltage variations, digital circuit will have their own internal voltage regulation.

I have 2 thermostats in housings same age. This was blue copper for inline use with a right angle tube fitting. Its all sodered together Not sure, is current stratus2000 uses the same parts? I would like to get rid of these items and is there some ONE person on the list willing to handle free distribution to others? I will ship free in priority flat rate box anywhere in the USA to one person. Otherwise its $25 for each of the 4 items to 4 persons again only to USA.

The outside diameter is for the steel tube mount engine side and the inside fits the rubber mount taper etc.. These as is the first offer can be to one person free for all or $25 included shipping for each or the now 5 items to different persons. To be fair lets set it up so only one set of a kind to each individual is possible. To be clear if someone can get up to 5 people to agree on this group and be the distributor I will ship free to that person and he will then ship to the otyhers at no more than actual shipping costs. Paul Rehiner is in FL and has been for many years. Out of this business. Visits Seattle at least once a year or has been last year. ----- Original Message ----- From: Paul To: stratus-list@matronics.com Sent: Friday, November 04, 2011 8:04 AM Subject: Re: Stratus-List: motor mount bushings and thermostats I have two sets of 8 hard rubber mount bushings back when Rhiner was the owner.
