Is the turn-signal switch return thingie repairable or adjustable? After a left (or is it right?) turn, the switch does not automatically trigger off. I'm hoping this is a pliers-fixable issue. Anybo

I've been trying to find an odometer worm gear, the 20-tooth driven white-plastic one. The speedo-repair shops I've contacted don't sell internal parts. Evidently, they're saving 'em for rebuilds. I

What is the recommended oil for the gearcase/OD? My manual says 80/90 hypoid gear oil, but an old Britcar mechanic says 30W. This puzzles me. Any comments? Doug Morris, NC '74 TR-6 CF-18xxx _________

Wellp, I've been avoiding the issue for years, but I'm going to have to replace the chassis on me ol' '74 TR-6. It's just getting too flimsy (you know, deadly). Yep, that's right, the PO's frame repa
