21. Re: TR6 Horn & Lube Question (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Mon, 12 Jun 95 16:25:52 EDT; I just spent part of the weekend replacing my horn relay (the old one had died, and the DPO had wired a new horn directly to the battery with a button screwed under the dash).

22. Re: TR6 Excessive toe in drivers side rear (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Thu, 15 Jun 95 17:01:36 EDT; Normally I'd think you could fix toe-in by removing shims from the inner trailing-arm mount-point (or adding to the outer). The primary effect should be on toe, with secondary effects on the other m; /html/triumphs/1995-06/msg00246.html (10,016 bytes)

If you've got a loose head, it may be warping when warm enough to allow high-pressure oil to get past the gasket into the combustion chambers.

24. Re: TR6 Hazard Flashers (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Wed, 21 Jun 95 13:47:58 EDT; Sounds like my problem (I get .3V at the relay in the flipped position). To make it more fun, many cars have harnesses that are a mixture of two (or more) of the different-year wiring diagrams. My M; /html/triumphs/1995-06/msg00368.html (8,527 bytes)
25. RE: TR6 Vacumn Advance etc. (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Thu, 22 Jun 95 15:58:26 EDT; Advance weights have no effect on throttle response, as the RPM doesn't change when you open the throttle. Vacuum retard WILL affect throttle response, as the retard unit isn't instantaneous in rele; /html/triumphs/1995-06/msg00411.html (7,795 bytes)
26. Re: TSSC Stafford (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Wed, 12 Jul 95 14:44:23 EDT; Ah, but the decreased mass of the sun will cause the Earth to be orbiting further out by then, I think roughly between current and Mars, or perhaps even as far out as Mars is, and thus it won't get; /html/triumphs/1995-07/msg00165.html (8,242 bytes)
27. Re: TR6 clutch problems (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Wed, 26 Jul 95 14:07:18 EDT; I got noticably more clutch travel and reduced problems by just replacing the clevis pin. Mine had NASTY grooves worn in it, maybe .03-.05" deep. This helped. The hole is a bit elongated and also th; /html/triumphs/1995-07/msg00400.html (8,373 bytes)

This hides on the back of the speedometer, and provides an ~10V steady level for the instruments, if all is well. It's an evil electro-mechanical thing I th; /html/triumphs/1995-07/msg00402.html (8,230 bytes)
29. Re: TR6 Fr. Suspension problems pt 2 (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Fri, 28 Jul 95 14:31:28 EDT; Sounds like this is a common TR6 problem. Mine might be due to the DPO hitting a curb in the RF and perhaps bending the frame, I suppose. I replaced the springs in my '6 for similar reasons (and the; /html/triumphs/1995-07/msg00438.html (8,006 bytes)
30. Re: Removing rear drums on a 250 (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Tue, 15 Aug 95 17:11:42 EDT; Not always. I had to replace an adjuster because I couldn't get one of the sliding parts free. I actually got the rotating part free (with major work), but in trying to get the slider free (many hou; /html/triumphs/1995-08/msg00233.html (8,171 bytes)

I don't know what other cars, if any, the Stag shares rear ends with. If it doesn't (or the ratios are unusual), it could be expe; /html/triumphs/1995-08/msg00244.html (8,962 bytes)
32. Re: TR6 Tires (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Wed, 16 Aug 95 23:24:21 EDT; I put 205/70-15's on mine, Yokohama A378's. They've worked out fairly well - overall size is very close to stock. They're the closest you can get to performance tires on stock rims unless you're wil; /html/triumphs/1995-08/msg00251.html (8,421 bytes)

34. Re: No Hazzard Lights (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Wed, 6 Sep 95 14:01:23 EDT; Not my problem; I was replying with an answer. Almost certainly the switch. It may well be corroded; they're big multi-pole switches and rarely get used, so the contacts don't get wiped. -- Randell; /html/triumphs/1995-09/msg00126.html (7,356 bytes)
35. RE: Seeking Advice re Gearbox/OD (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Fri, 8 Sep 95 15:48:14 EDT; It requires some work at least, perhaps not a full rebuild. There are two things that alone or in combination cause jumping out of gear: 1) weak detent spring on the 3rd/4th shift fork. This _probab; /html/triumphs/1995-09/msg00178.html (9,854 bytes)

Re: Brakes: that sinking feeling (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Mon, 11 Sep 95 16:44:57 EDT; I'll bet dollar to doughnuts that it's a bad seal/valve/etc in the master cylinder. Basically, under pressure no fluid is supposed to get back to the reservoir, and it is. I'm not really mentally up; /html/triumphs/1995-09/msg00219.html (7,584 bytes)

38. Re: Spring compressors and shocks (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Tue, 12 Sep 1995 22:25:54 -0700; Paranoia is useful here. TRF sells a very nice compressor for TR3/4/250/6, with no chance of it slipping off (it replaces the shock temporarily). It's also nicely over-engineered.

39. Re: tr-6 camshaft specs (score: 1): Author: "Randell Jesup" <jesup@scala.scala.com>; Date: Mon, 18 Sep 95 17:34:34 EDT; Cams were different, and later TR6's ('72 and later) had lowcompression heads (7.5:1, earlier were 8.5:1). Later US TR6's had a better cam, so they didn't lose much HP, though they lost some torque; /html/triumphs/1995-09/msg00370.html (7,867 bytes)

They have too many vacuum leaks. I timed my '6 (which ran ok at RPM, but tried to stall when stepping on the throttle) by just; /html/triumphs/1995-10/msg00279.html (8,165 bytes)
