[TR] Could it be rings-Update

[Italyfound]

Well thank you all who responded......

Here's the results of the compression test on my '59 TR3A...

...As you may remember my thinking was rings or wires causing the
problem.........

Compression test.........

#1 cylinder.....................178 psi
#2 cylinder.....................180 psi
#3 cylinder.....................180 psi
#4 cylinder.....................178 psi

  ..so next test is to replace the bumble bee wires with new ignition wires.
The problem here is ordering replacement  wires from the UK for here in Italy
will take about 10 days. My TR3A has the side entrance cap. So I will purchase
appropriate length wires and cut the end off to insert into the hole in the
cap.

Stay tuned....

thx again...
