You can buy enthanol proof hoses at your local auto parts store or Moss sells the different sizes by the foot. I went the Moss route and replaced all the rubber hoses related to fuel on my TR6. Nice

When I went to the VTR convention in San Luis Obispo a couple of years ago, I developed a fuel leak. It turned out that the EFI hoses I was using between the steel lines were being eaten up by the al

It's a fact that no Triumph driver will pass another by the side of the road. That is the fact. I was ready for the hook till they arrived. I had called my son in law and told him to prepare to hook

My TR3 coasted off to the side of the road last Saturday, about 500 miles from home. Thankfully I quickly narrowed it down to a highly probable bad condenser and had a spare in the boot plus the righ

What a coincidence. My TR3's condenser died yesterday, while I was hurrying to the shop to pick up the other car. But I was basically stopped in the #1 lane in LA rush hour traffic, so I walked it to
