Generator Pre-Heat

[Ralph L. Fullenwider]

Scott, I have not traced the gauge power source, it could well be though. I
do not have a schematic of the gauges in the circuit. There is also a diode
in line in that area too, it is black, square about the size of a dime. C1
relay is a key in that circuit.
