21. Put grease in new balljoints? (score: 1)
Author: Jeremy DuBois <jer@thlogic.com>
Date: Wed, 6 Sep 1995 18:19:14 -0400 (EDT)
At the risk of admitting my ignorance, when you install new balljoints in the front suspension (of a Spit 1500, if it matters), are you supposed to put grease into the balljoint? I didn't, I just stu

If you don't care about being able to dim the lights, just bypass the reheostat. The one in my Spit hasn't worked since I bought the car. I don't feel like shelling out the $50 or so for a replaceme

I happen to have tried fitting the TR8 style alloy wheels on my spitfire briefly. I didn't drive on them, but I just put them on to see if they'd fit. They do indeed fit. I figure I'll put them all

It's been a while since we all discussed the death rattle and rattling on part throttle in my spit and a few other people's cars. Well, I still haven't done anything about it, but I happen to be at a

I'm assuming you've got a later spit. If so it's a Vacuum Retard unit, which retards the timing while the car is at idle to reduce emmissions. While at idle, with the throttle closed, there is a lar

My vote is for the TR7 water pump. It seems like a yearly renewable and I don't know what possessed them to jam it in there so you have to remove the carbs and the manifolds before you can get to th

Hmm, sounds fantastic. If I add it to my fuel system will it make my car pass its emissions test cleanly? Jeremy DuBois Programmer/System Administrator Thermalogic Corporation '72 MGB, '76 Spit P.S.

Here's my attempt on the difference, based on what I remember reading from my engines textbook: With a long stroke, the pistons and rods have to move further per stroke than on a short stroke engine

Hmmm... I looked in the "Triumph Spitfire and GT6 Guide to Originality" and it didn't have either of those paint codes. Spitfire paint codes are completely messed up, as a great number of spitfires

I keep wanting to beat my insurance agent for this. I don't own *ANY* TRs, yet she continually refers to my cars as the "two TRs"... :-/ Oh well, perhaps if I wreck the spit, I can claim it was a TR

TR's don't get any respect? Try a Spitfire. If anybody makes it past the, "Gee, what a nice MG" stage, they invariably try to cover their blunder with a statement like "Oh, Well TR6's are nice cars
