IMHO that is the most likely scenario. Political opinions aside, inflation IS going up in the USA and there is nothing we can do at this point to stop it. Just curious, would you have been happier i

I did, until it quit working. Came with 5 gallons of some sort of petroleum-based solvent, which eventually dissolved the pump. I've tried some of the water-based cleaners, including Simple Green. N

I believe it can be done. http://tinyurl.com/464qfsh However, many of the instructions supplied have had the wrong dimensions for grinding the crank. If it turns out you were misled by defective ins

At +/- 10%, your engine is getting a bit 'tired'. It should still run OK, but max power will be somewhat down and it may burn a bit more fuel than a fresh engine would. You might want to start savin

I put a Helicoil in one, long ago. Seemed to work fine. Probably tapping oversize would work OK too, I just dislike being my own DPO when I can help it. -- Randall

Another almost-myth, IMO. Simple Green is quite alkaline, and long-term exposure to it can promote relatively minor corrosion in aluminum. So the "trick" is to be sure that all of the SG gets flushe

I didn't find that particular pattern, but a quick Google turned up all sorts of brake light flasher add-ons. Seems like most of them flash 6 times rather than just twice. Eg, http://www.flashingbra

Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall)

Early TR4 used the same trunnion as TR2-3B, with zero caster. Later TR4 used a trunnion that looks very similar to the early one, but with a 3 degree angle between the pin & bore. -- Randall

If it works the same as the TR3 switch, you have to insert the key and turn it to the 'on' position, then push a punch or similar through that hole to depress the button. While holding the button de

Probably not the ones you saw, but there are all sorts of small shaft couplings that would work. For example, MMC P/N 6208k98: http://www.mcmaster.com/#6208k98/=bbftsh (though you might have to short

Best to check with the tire maker, as they aren't always the same. A quick check shows that Continental allows their 165/60-15 to be on rims up to 6.5". http://tireselector.conti-online.com/size.php

You did, as I got it. I do not know of a specification for that. But .030" at the hub shouldn't cause more than about .090" (3 times) at the tire, which doesn't seem like enough to worry about. Seem

They became kind of a status symbol among old car people, back when they meant the car had actually remained registered in CA since the 60s. Then the law changed, so now you can have black plates on

That will be an original TR2-early TR3A starter, then, and the problem is that the steel/rubber sleeve, Stanpart 501217, has failed. TRF LUTLB160 or Moss 549-580. Or this might be a good time to con

I don't believe so. The former owner could have kept the plate and transferred it to another of his cars; but since he did not do that, it's interesting only as a collector's item. Blue plates are n
