>>Hey Guys, (and Tirebiter!)
>>
>>I ran across your nice triumph pages and have written to Tirebiter
>>before.
>>I am trying to wire my 74 TVR 2500M starter switch right (same stuff as
>>in TR6), and I have not come across any diagrams and thought that if you
>>have a wiring diagram / know which 5 wires belong to which numbers on
>>the back of the ignition switch, that would be awesome. I can't seem to
>>get mine wired so that the ignition stays on when I release the key from
>>the Start position. However, when I try rewiring it other ways, the
>>Accessories (dash stuff) are still on when I turn the key off. If
>>anyone can help, I'll email back the colors of the wires on this new
>>switch that I have for each number that is assigned.
>>
>>It is five wires that I can't seem to get right, since the switch
>>replacement I rec'd is from a later TR7 / Spitfire Lucas kit. It is
>>missing the two Red wires in the middle of the switch, that some older
>>switches seem to have.
>>
>>Have anything to help me out on this?
>>
>>(Tirebiter,
>>The few problems I had with the engine knocking and backfiring through
>>the carbs was due to having a rocker arm break, and a rod or two popping
>>out from under it's seat and bending... This I was able to fix,
>>however, the overheating did not totally stop. My adjustments to the
>>rocker arms were not correct, and a louder valvy sound occured - it
>>still had a hard time running, and this was due to having the rockers
>>too tight. This was corrected by Specialty Sports Cars in Columbus, OH,
>>and they made the car sound better than ever before. Overheating has
>>been minimized to days below 75 F, but I have to have the radiator
>>cleaned out in the spring before it gets warm again. The car runs
>>great, and I have had no problems other than the start switch going
>>bad. I also think I need a new starter relay if anyone has one laying
>>around.)
>>
>>Thanks,
