Need Voltage Regulator (AOG)

[mooneyflyer]

A good Mooniac friend is AOG in Petaluma (O69) in need of voltage regulator for his 66 Ranger.  Anyone help him?

Go buy a zeftronics and be done with it. What is he looking for a free voltage regulator?  Pfft.

Great look Scott… He’s stuck away from home late on a Saturday night at a strange airport with a component failure. He’s looking for someone who might have one on hand within driving distance. He said nothing about free.

are you trying to look like a complete jerk?

Hard to make out what kind that is. Any better pictures?  He is sure the regulator went?

Likely a longshot to find an exact replacement. That’s a Lamar regulator. While it is a PMA part the M20C is not in the application guide. Not likely there’s one here. If some one has a Delco VR, that would likely be plug and play. My old Delco was shipped to a fellow MS’r years ago.

Clearly I "missed" the fact that he was stranded.  I apologize.  I missed the context completely.

Fair enough. Apologies for my harsh tone.

AOG = Aircraft on ground. The connotation is that AOG occurs away from home and is preventing return.

I looked up AOG AFTER reading your response.  Just wasn't clear to me on "the ask".  Oh well.  No worries, I deserved the response.  Hope the pilot is able to get airborne again.  I had AOG issues twice.  Starter and flat tire.  Ended up being opportunites for "adventure".  Hope this pilot doesn't have "to long" an extended adventure...
