Cliff,

I=E2=80=99m pretty sure it=E2=80=99s the 13312, has the same slip-on =
fuel line fittings, which is the one highlighted on the home page. =20

At the bottom of the home page is a link to a table of comparison =
English vehicles.  Doesn=E2=80=99t list TR3, but you will see it=E2=80=99s=
 listing it at 2.5-3 psi.

Just got back from our DYTD drive with 12 Triumphs and 1 Jaguar XKE =
Coupe over to the coast.  It was raining yesterday and rain tomorrow, =
but today was sunny California!
