Does anyone have 3 spare bolts that attach the oil pump? Mine are stripped.
Please spare me from explaining. Happily cover parts and postage.
Thank you.

I have the 3 bolts that came out of my original oil pump--I just installed the new pump with new bolts as part of a complete rebuild. Let me know if they will work. Can mail them tomorrow.

Bill,

Just wanted to "publicly " thank you, in the "presence" of the 6pack
community, for your kind and prompt response to my parts request.

This group is a tremendous resource comprised of some very fine folks.

Thank you Bill. Thank you all.

It was my pleasure. I've received similar help from others in various groups including the TR-6 community, and the BSA and Norton communities.
Glad to be able to help--just as I was helped many times in the past.

Hey,
Anybody got any advice for dealing with insurance co that wants to total the 72 Spitfire for a minor rear-end bump? It needs a left rear quarter and rear lower valance and bumper.  I hate to have a salvage title for such a little bit of damange. Any advice?

Message-ID: <BN8PR08MB624178AFCBDE6326E8AFBAD88E259@BN8PR08MB6241.namprd08.prod.outlook.com>

Hey guys,
On the TR6, doing a Diff freshen-up. Replacing the seals. Got the ones from Moss. Put oil in it last night, and today I see it's leaking from the pinion seal.

The center area the seal presses into is a little scratched up, result from removing the old seal. I'm assuming that's the issue. However, TRF sells much more expensive seals.

SO, do I try another Moss seal, try to smooth out that surface, and maybe even a thin coat of the gasket maker? Or is the TRF seal worth it?

any advice?

Slone --- If the scratch doesn't run the full length of where the seal lip would reside, you may be able to place a new seal deeper or shallower in the bore where there's no scratch. 
If Speedi-Sleeve comes in that bore diameter that's another option. 
If the scratch is too long and not too deep, polishing it out with a cylinder hone is another option. 
OR you could chance it as is using a good sealer.

Sloane,

I had the same issue on a TR4 on the seal at the back of the transmission,
complete with scratches. I put in another seal with some Hylomar, and that
fixed it. It helped that that seal is only $1.65 from TRF.

Hey guys,
Sorry this one is old. I haven't been keeping up with my 6pack folder.

Did anybody mention this? Someone once showed me how to tell the difference in a TR4 and TR5/250 body. Looking at the engine bay, on the right inner fender well, there is the indention for the carbs, same as a TR6. This is not found on a TR4. On a TR4 both left and right are smooth curves. I pulled up the ebay listing for that car, and it looks like a TR250 to me, based on this.

Carry on.
Sloane

It?s a cold and rainy day here in Michigan ? very Irish.  Killing time looking at various cars and came across this 250:



https://www.ebay.com/itm/203348631355?hash=item2f5885df3b%3Ag%3A1pgAAOSw4j1gdxoh&LH_ItemCondition=3000%7C1000%7C2500



Looks like a TR4 hood/bonnet and 4A grille with no appropriate badges on the trunk/boot either.  No stripe.  But the seats look to be correct for a 250. Is that dash correct?
