I, too, have been told that the input shaft to the transmission of a TR6 enters the bottom of the tranny and provides the splash lubrication. Thus, flat towing without the engine running will possib

I use Valvoline 20-50 in all the cars (Lexus RX300 & BMW 325), except the TR6. Whe I raced Formula Fords back in the 70s & 80S, Vavoline was the only oil that would not foam in the dry sump system. I

My son and I got a chance to "bond" with his car (73 TR6) a bit today. His stock exhaust broke at the manifold earlier in the week, so we ordered at stainless sport exhaust from one of the big 3. It

As my son and I did the steering column rebuild, we were lucky with the "sheared ignition bolts" as someone else had already slotted them. Definitely take out both the speedo and tach to get access.
