I too have a TR6 with PI - in the US.  It's a great unit - once the metering 
unit
is calibrated, it runs fine.  Really, it's a good design, with the exception of 
the 
Lucas petrol pump (based on a windscreen wiper motor) and even that pump, 
with proper cooling, will serve you well, right Egil?  I have a Bosch pump on 
mine but have the original Lucas pump which I'll soon be rebuilding for future 
use.

Regards,
