Re: 83 Urq blinker makes tach bobble

I had exactly the same problem with my '83.  LOW VOLTAGE, which the turn
signal drops below the critical level.  Engaging the reversing lights also
does it.

Check Current Lead # 15 where it enters the fuse box, mine finally burned
all the way through.  I would also look at upgrading your regulator, if not
putting in one of Avi Meron's upgraded alternators.
