21. I'm a leper (score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Fri, 28 Apr 1995 11:00:54 -0700 (PDT); Well, I'm already falling in the Leper class with Teri-Ann, since I use Zymol wax on my car and fill with unleaded gas, two things that weren't aviailable in 1967. So a V-8 isn't really that far of a; /html/triumphs/1995-04/msg00281.html (8,280 bytes)
22. Let's all have a good weekend! (score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Fri, 28 Apr 1995 13:12:29 -0700 (PDT); John, No way I'm going to cut a hole in my hood to fit an American Lump. I suppose if I did though, I could put one of those neeto ABS plastic hood scoops from Pep-Boys. ;-) ;-) <--Sarcastic Smileeyy; /html/triumphs/1995-04/msg00286.html (7,958 bytes)
23. Not going to do it.. (score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Sat, 29 Apr 1995 10:09:15 -0700 (PDT); Well, I looked at the 215 Al V-8 yesterday, but it was perhaps more of a project than I wanted. The cylinder liners were rusty, the crank was missing. I politely passed. Perhaps if I find a 62 Skylar; /html/triumphs/1995-04/msg00290.html (7,263 bytes)
24. GT-6 Rotoflex couplings (score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Mon, 1 May 1995 19:31:59 -0700 (PDT); This weekend, I installed (among other things) both Rotoflex couplings in a 72 GT6, using the unorthodox easy method. This doesn't involve separating the hubs, so it can save some time/discomfort. Al; /html/triumphs/1995-05/msg00018.html (7,204 bytes)

It was a 1500 with a 13B in it. It was quite a quick car, but something didn't seem right. The motor's response curve and exha; /html/triumphs/1995-05/msg00020.html (7,011 bytes)
26. Re: Spitfire Compression (score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Mon, 8 May 1995 11:11:27 -0700 (PDT); I think most people that have 4-cylinder engines would be proud of such compression numbers. They indicate a smooth engine that's in good shape. I believe you have a vacuum retard. If this is the cas; /html/triumphs/1995-05/msg00154.html (7,945 bytes)

The cam lobe should be concentric over a wide degree window. Does that make any sense? I didn't think so. Umm.. Hmm.

Re: TR-6 questions (score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Thu, 18 May 1995 10:02:43 -0700 (PDT); The Overdrive pump is working all of the time, but the pumped fluid is supposed to be bled off until you switch ON the solenoid, closing the hydraulic circuit and allowing pressure to rise.

Manufacturers like to include safety features where there's a possibility of legal action. I suppose that if the Spitfire were made today, it would have such a; /html/triumphs/1995-05/msg00341.html (7,851 bytes)
31. Re: Idle speed (score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Tue, 23 May 1995 11:22:38 -0700 (PDT); You may have leaky throttle shaft bushings. Check them for wear. I assume you have the high idle while the idle screws are removed. Somehow you are getting air into the engine, so if it's not coming; /html/triumphs/1995-05/msg00391.html (8,267 bytes)

(score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Tue, 23 May 1995 12:07:14 -0700 (PDT); Folks, While we were visiting my parents this last weekend in Seattle, I sat in my Spit-6, which has been sitting outside ever since we got the Jag.

33. Quiz is over... (score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Wed, 24 May 1995 09:56:05 -0700 (PDT); Well the quiz as to why the Spitfire died is over. There were several good suggestions. Randall suggested that the float valve was stuck open. (this was my first thought too). He also suggested that; /html/triumphs/1995-05/msg00422.html (8,344 bytes)

(X-post) (score: 1): Author: Greg Meboe <meboe@wsunix.wsu.edu>; Date: Tue, 30 May 1995 10:26:28 -0700 (PDT); Well, For those of you who read subject lines, you'll see that I just got the Spit-6 back on the road. Boy is it an exhilerating ride! I'm amazed at what a loud car it is. Saturday I saw an ad in the; /html/triumphs/1995-05/msg00504.html (8,594 bytes)

I've heard this referred to as a Detroit locker before, so that's why I used the term in my post. I believe that is the correct definition.

I don't label things when I take them apart, as it can cause unnecessary confusion later.

So while you're at it, how does a Detroit locker 'differ' from a normal limited slip diff, and how does a Gleason Torsen diff work? I've never seen; /html/triumphs/1995-05/msg00522.html (7,383 bytes)

There is an easy, quick way I've found to remove the caps without destroying them. You need a sharp cold chisel and a hammer. No I'm not kidding.

All the B tops have the snaps installed, but none of the Spits do. You can even buy B tops with the header rail installed.
