My TR4A workshop manual just happens to be at work. It doesn't say how far to thread the vertical into the trunnion -- just to ensure that it moves easily back and forth. The point about the grease s

The back of the top is secured by a plate that pinches the top to the rear deck. I don't understand. I have such a plate -- it's attached to the rear deck by five bolts, and the rear of the top snaps

So I've been looking at pictures of TR4s with Surrey tops, and the thought occurred that Sarah might look quite nice with one. Does anyone have any idea on where I might find one, and what the cost m

3. Someone told me about some wide rubber band things I should put around the wheel to cover the dimples where the spokes connect. I presume this is to prevent inner tube chafing. I have lots of MGB

I clearly missed the BMH tracing blurb. Could someone reproduce it for me? I'd love to do this. I'd also love to figure out who all the previous owners were. Anybody got ideas on this? So far, I'm st

As I have said before, what is a sports car nut to do? Buy an old one. It's interesting: I just helped a friend buy a new car. She was driving an 83 Mazda GLC sedan that had been pretty badly beaten.

Hmm. That makes me wonder. Does anyone have the phone number for Triumph Tune? I sent them a card a while back asking for a catalog. They want an international money order for something under 10 poun

Jim asks: I don't quite understand. You mean a car with AC, tranny, fancy stereo, etc.? You mean a Hyundai or a M-B? Any anyway, Jaguar doesn't make either a Hyundai or a M-B I mean I'm not sure I wo

It's pretty quiet, so I thought I'd send out my latest example of how badly Sarah has been hacked by previous owners. Since I brought her home, she's run cold. The only time that she'd come to temper

Sarah is a '67 TR4A... Of course, there's a downside to the engine running at the proper temperature (there's always a downside, right?): First, there's a lot of run on, and some pinking. No doubt I

Comes time to flush the cooling system on Sarah (TR4A). I discover that not only is there a drain at the bottom of the radiator, but one at the rear of the block. Great, I think, this'll make it easy
