To adjust the valves on my '74 TR6, I need a way to turn the engine over.
Short of removing the radiator, I don't see a way to get to the front of the
fan to do this. Any ideas for another method of getting the motor to go
around slow enough?
Jim,
My experience is not TR6 specific, but I have found that with the plugs out
and the car out of gear, pulling on the fan belt, or using a socket and large
ratchet on the alternator nut while pressing in on the belt works well for
me.I've used this method on my TR3, my Stag, and my XJ6.
