[TR] TR6 Thermostatic Switch Removal

[thenicholls at verizon.net]

1972 Triumph TR6.  Switch was bad and not doing anything.  Went with black hose from TRF to remove it, since the original owner had gone black hoses with the NOS clips.

Had carbs rebuilt that winter, installed and tuned.  No issue with removal, even though I know it should be there.  The car is very original.

Hope this helps..........Craig

I see that TRF sells green hose kits where you can get a straight hose
instead of the two for the thermostatic switch bypass. Do most people remove
the switch? What advantage, pro or con, is there to keeping or removing the
switch? Are there other things that need to be done after the switch is
removed? Other that originality and because they look cool, are there
legitimate reasons for paying more for the green hose kit instead of the black
hoses? I plan to keep the ZS carbs on my TR6 for now. TIA, Bill in
