Supposedly it raises cylinder pressure at idle (by allowing the throttle to be open farther at idle), and hence promotes more complete combustion, reducing HC emissions. That would be the throttle b

It wasn't really vacuum dependent on the TR6, any more than on your TR250. They just eliminated the (complicated and troublesome) valve by using a special port in the carb, placed such that it only

FWIW, I use a variable speed 1/2" drill motor that only turns 850 rpm max. It has been enough to get all of my ODs up to full pressure (around 400 psi) and engaged. I would think that 500 rpm would

In addition to the objections already raised, you'd need a huge reservoir, and you'd have to have an oversized turbo to fill it, which would cut into engine power. The "hot setup" would be a variabl

Might be easier if you have a specific question. Basically you remove the shims, reinstall the carrier & bearings, then measure clearance without the R&P (and add .003") to get total shim thickness.

I don't believe that is correct. In direct drive, the springs force the clutch to the rear, where it engages with the annulus, forcing both of them to turn at driveshaft rpm. So the center of the be
