	Update:  revving the engine quite high, I get (nearly) 13.1V at the
battery and 12.3V at the fuse box.  (Engine was not fully warmed up, but
all accessories were off.)  Sounds like voltage regulator time.

	RMMW lists the same regulator required for both Beetles & Type III
(9 190 040 099).  This right?
