I bought the Moss kits, and did mine myself. They turned out very nice, although I had a minor complaint about the moss kits; they don't include foam for the headrests. It is trivial to cut your own

Difficult to be sure, but it looks like a remote oil filter kit. I would say that the owner at some point got tired of wrestling with the OEM canister oil filter, and installed a kit that allows use

While a wiring problem is possible, the most likely explanation is that your alternator is on the fritz. Take your alternator to an automotive electric shop (look in the yellow pages). Testing is no

I read a little bit about this device. I cannot comment on the merits of toilet paper as a filtering media. (I wonder if Charmin is better than Wal-Mart at filtering those little bitty carbon partic

Sounds like your car has been extensively modified, so all bets are off as to the correctness of the owners manual (If it is even the correct manual for your car). The factory located the OD switch

I used POR 15 as well. Impressive stuff. It is also true that the tiniest air leak in a resealed can will result in your very expensive POR 15 turning into an unusable lump in very short order, so k

You are correct. The parking or headlights must be on for the trunk light to function. I agree it makes the trunk light less useful, but Triumph in their collective wisdom decided that was the way i

Vicky Brit and Moss don't carry the seal, so I bought one from this guy on eBay. He must be making them, as the minute one sells, he lists another one. As far as I know he is the only source. I have

The howling was the alternator after a diode gave up the ghost. The windings howl as the current flow begins to pulsate after one of the diodes goes bye-bye =:-( Moss sells a kit that converts the w

Got this email from the Roadster Factory. If you are contemplating an OD install, this might be a good time to get the mainshaft and perhaps the adapter. 10% off and $5 for shipping. Can't beat that

You are correct; I went back to the wiring diagrams for this - The '69 - '73 TR6s had a trunk light that is wired straight to the hot lead of the battery; i.e. The lights need not be on for the ligh

I have a 74-1/2 as well, and have done this so I can speak to it. Be aware that if you hook all this stuff back up, your car will not start until the seat belts are fastened, doors are closed, and t

At this point in time there is still only one brand to consider, and that is K&N. They flow the best, and do so while still filtering out the grit that shortens engine life. You can get K&N from Mos

You didn't say what year your car is.... The anti run-on valve was installed in TR6s beginning in 1973, so if your car is earlier than that, you need to look elsewhere. If your car is 73 or later, t

As others have observed, worn out bushings can be the cause of this. My car had this symptom. New springs were of no help. The solution lay in replacing the trailing arm bushings (4 of them) and, to

You are correct. A "jam nut" is generally just a plain nut that is torqued against another nut or threaded part and prevents unwanted rotation by stretching the bolt to provide a compressive force b

I just finished this on my 74. The connector is missing because it is no longer being made. You can recycle you old one, but the harness probably has a female pin connector on it if you look closely

The simplest explanation is that the 1-2 shift fork came loose from the selector rod. At a minimum you need to remove the top cover and check your shift forks. Before you remove the top cover though

Usually this is because the switch is not close enough to the steering column. There is enough slop in the mounting holes that you can loosen the screws, push the switch towards the column, and whil
