OK WPTA Nation I have an idea for those of us in Isolation.

A Virtual Tune Up Clinic. 

Why not your post Triumph activities while in isolation. I’ll start it off.
  a.. Converted my TR 4A braking system to the Toyota front calipers and larger rear wheel cylinders. Can’t wait to try them out later this week. Essential isolated trip somewhere. 
  b.. Drain and fill Transmission and Overdrive. 
  c.. Oil and filter change. 
  d.. Replaced a Valve Spring Retainer which was about to fail. I got real lucky that it did not fail on our New England trip last fall. 
  e.. Adjusted the Valves and check the spark plug gap. I run Pertronix so no points to check. 
  f.. General nut and bolt check for tightness. 
  g.. Adjusted rear brake shoes. Will install new E brake cables soon. 
  h.. Greased zerk fittings. 
  i.. Had the Tach and Speedo checked and lubricated by John Wolf & Co. located here in Cleveland. Highly recommend these guys. 
  j.. And for my good friend Bruce I did check the cylinder head torque values and am happy to say they were in spec. I may go to a yearly only check from here out. 
  k.. I may even wash and wax the exterior and do a deep clean of the interior if it warms up some.
That’s my list, who’s next?
