242. [TR] Idle oil pressure (score: 131): Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Sat, 9 Jul 2011 18:37:59 -0700; Sorry I didn't answer your text, Ronnie. Was out in the desert under a Stag, with the phone in the toolbox for safekeeping. The GT6 is basically like the TR2-6; idle oil pressure can be anything fro; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00454.html (7,550 bytes)

It is apparently not too difficult to manage to form an aerosol with tiny droplets hanging in the air. If one of those droplets lands on your surface,; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00456.html (7,492 bytes)
244. [TR] squeaky front suspension TR3 (score: 131): Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Sun, 10 Jul 2011 02:15:09 -0700; FWIW, I was reading through some old TSOA newsletters; and one of them has the comment that "squeaks and groans" from the front suspension are usually from the _lower_ inner pivots.

246. [TR] TR3 shroud (score: 131): Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Sun, 10 Jul 2011 11:00:39 -0700; I presume this is a TR3A, with the wide grill. Adding the shroud to my early 3A (which did not originally have one) definitely helped it run cooler at freeway speeds. -- Randall; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00474.html (8,976 bytes)
247. [TR] TR3 kick panel hole (score: 131): Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2011 21:10:23 -0700; I believe it was a provision for a factory radio speaker: http://fwd4.me/06O5 Up to you whether you want to seal it, but I don't think doing so will keep you any drier. -- Randall; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00490.html (8,158 bytes)

I don't believe there was a 'clean' crossover date, but TS39781LO had the push-on connectors as wel; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00505.html (8,022 bytes)

Hard to tell the difference between stuck in direct drive and stuck in OD; except that when you try to back up with the OD engaged, it forces the sp; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00507.html (8,263 bytes)

If so, it's an electrical problem and you can troubleshoot in the usual fashion. Another possibility is that the OD clutch is stuck inside the b; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00520.html (8,871 bytes)
252. [TR] Welding radiator inlet tubes - mating different ones. (score: 131): Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2011 10:57:34 -0700; Not worth the hassle, IMO. Just take it to any radiator shop, and have them install a new fill neck. The part is only $15-$20 new; and they may even install it for free if you have the radiator serv; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00527.html (8,650 bytes)
253. [TR] tr6 reversing woes (score: 131): Author: tr3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2011 16:50:09 -0700; Good idea! In addition, I suggest doing at least one check at high speed with the gearbox relatively cold. I apparently had my A-type accumulator shimmed up to the point where it would regulate the; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00531.html (10,203 bytes)

[TR] radiator contamination (score: 131): Author: tr3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2011 09:41:10 -0700; Most likely nothing to worry about, as long as it continues to run cool. But it wouldn't hurt to backflush the radiator, in case any pieces got caught in a tube. The problem is the blue form-a-gaske; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00583.html (8,591 bytes)

Conventional brake fluid is amazingly corrosive, especially when it gets old. If it's any consolation, both of the caliper bleed screws were stuck on TS13571L when it came to; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00602.html (8,809 bytes)
