Here is my latest dumb question for you post TS60000 TR3A experts.
There is a black ground wire that separates from the main wiring harness where
it emerges into the engine compartment near the relay/ fuse block /starter
solinoid. This wire has a ring connector and obviously gets attached to a
mounting bolt in the relay/ fuse block/ solinoid area. Does any one know which
bolt on which item this connects too?? The relay has two screws, but it would
have to mount between a screw head and the relay plastic. The fuse block has a
single screw in the middle and you could not get a wire to the head. The
solinoid seems to be the logical choice. Can someone please varify it for me?

Over the weekend I Sworked primarily on the Land Rover brake hydrolic system and
made no headway (I am now suspecting that my brand new Girling Master brake
cylinder is bad). But I did make a little headway on the TR. I redrilled the
holes above the battery box that got covered when I rebuilt that area. I
installed the wiper cable assembly (new grommet, regreased cable & gears,
polished tube where it exits bulkhead). The carpet on the middle inside of the
bulkhead is now mounted. I trimed a inch or so of the rear shelf carpet to get
a good fit (I'm currently not planning to install the carpet pieces that fit
under the seat to minimize wet mouldy rust promoters). The wiring harness
around the relay/ fuse/ flasher/ and solinoid are now connected. The instrument
panel finally has the last of the old covering off, been derusted and now
supports a coating of this stuff labled to be 93% bright metal Zinc. I'm
letting it dry a couple of days before adding new nagahide (would you believe
there was light rust under the old?). I got the two big and three of the small
instruments cleaned up. The clean up consists of cleaning the outside of the
instrument, removing the bezel & lense; dusting the inside; cleaning the lense;
polishing the bezel ring, spray the 93% zinc stuff on the outside of the meter
back, then reassembing the instruments.
Not a whole lot, but it is headway... Its better than what happened to the Land
Rover or the BGT.
Take care,
