- Hi All... Questions about advance curves. Does anyone have info on what the advance curve should be for a '74 TR6. I noticed that the mechanical advance mechanism appears to be pretty sloppy. Loose s

- I have to disagree with Greg. $1500, max. You'll end up spending countless thousands, no need to spend it up front. I am assuming that you are going to work on this yourself, and that you know "thes

- Wmccull Sorry I don't have your name... Seems to me that you should try to prime the pump without turning the entire engine over. Not sure if it is possible on your engine, it is on a TR6. If you tru
