I recommend sending your distributor to Bob Sarama, jsarama@cinci.rr.com, in Loveland, Ohio. For $155, he'll completely rebuild and upgrade the lubrication in the unit. As the TR6 distributor is rare

Check the tightness of the 'Lucar' connection about midway across the inside of the rear boot panel. You'll have to loosen the black trunk board there to find it. On my 72, the connection was loose a

Dumping the fan is a good idea for anything except originality; You free up horsepower, make the engine quieter, and improve mileage. This is why all new cars now sport electric fans. Low restrictio
