I actually have no idea what's in their now -- it's whatever the PO put in them. I got that recommendation (same as motor) from the service manual. Other than checking the levels (fine), I haven't go

Thanks to all for the feedback on my maintenance list. Getting even this much figured out gives me a small patch of known in the vast unknown that is TR4 repair and restoration. At least I can put th

While the TR4 is still immobile, I have made some progress. I removed the battery and starter to run some tests, then remembered that the local British Motor Club had a run tonight. Drove over to the

Seems like my starting problem is a DPO wiring issue. Charged the battery, and car starts fine. Had the alternator (Delco) tested, and it is okay. Looked at the wiring, and compared it to some docume

Thanks all for the advice. I'm making a little progress, and getting my head wrapped around the issues a little better. Turns out the instructions the PO included were an article from the VTR website

The red light came on bright with the key. After the strange flashy thing, it went to a dull red. Didn't try either of these. That'll be my fun for this evening. :-) I'm also going to try running the

Really, of course, this isn't Lucas' fault, since I'm dealing with a non-Lucas alternator. Much continuing thanks to Randall and y'all for all the suggestions. I checked the voltage with hot test lea

What a strange trip this has been. I've certainly learned a bunch about TR4 wiring! Amazing how so few wires can be so frustrating. I'm going to call a friend I just met in the local British Motor Cl

As part of the alternator conversion, the instructions say to connect 3 wires together. I've been having trouble finding some sort of connector to join them all together. I was considering just solde

Don't know much about the voltage regulator. Where is it, and how do I test it?

Thanks for your instructions. The PO of my TR4 installed the alternator. She said that the voltage regulator had gone out, and that seemed to be the proper time to convert. I'm just trying to figure

I think I'm getting closer to believing that the alternator in my TR4 is bad. I've done a number of wiring checks as suggested here and on the British Car Forum: http://www.britishcarforum.com/ubbthr

Thanks for the information. I had wondered if that big brass toothed jobby under the OD was a drain--now I know. I'll have to see if I can find a tool for that. What would one look like? -Drew
