[V8] V8 Voltmeter

[Ed Kellock]

My '91 5spd reads between 13.5 and 14 which I can corroborate at the
jump-start post.

Very true.  On most all the other V8's I've had/worked on, the voltage would
fluctuate and (if the clmate control is turned off -- ie. blower not drawing
power) the readout would be between 13.2-14 volts.  Not so in my 5-speed. It
reads 12v regardless - whereas at the battery I'd show 13.9 to 14.3 volts.
