More likely it is the rubber coupler in the starter motor itself. Unless you are going for concours points you might consider a gear reduction drive. Most folks who have switched over will never go b

Chris, check your local hardware store in the chain and cable section. You can get crimp-on connectors for steel cable of various sizes. These are for fastening the ends of cables together forming lo

The tops of the struts and cup washers should never turn. There is a thrust washer between the upper spring pan and the cone spacer. If the tops are turning the thrust washer isn't. There is also a s

If your braking system is new stem to stern I recommend DOT5 (silicone). I redid my TR6 back in 1996 and put in silicone at that time. This winter I had to actually bleed the system for the first tim

Saludo, Guido. This issue of oil ratings can be confusing. The TR3 specified SAE 30W engine oil. The later models called for 90W hypoid gear oil. The viscosity rating of engine oil is performed at di

No. The shuttle itself has a seal at each end where it enters the pressure chamber on either side. In between it is open to atmosphere. If you get fluid leaking from the switch the PDWA needs new sea

I would check the adjustment of the lever. It might be set at a borderline position and just a little bit more is what it needs to operate. Dave

Hi, Ronnie, Two possible reasons: 1) Switch gone bad 2) low oil pressure. The thing to do now is to hook up an oil pressure gauge (does a GT6 have a gauge?) and see what the pressure is at idle. I ha

That would be an early TR4 unit. From before they switched to flat glass. Try Moss motors or call TRF. Dave

Indeed. You will also need the sending unit and the wiring, too. The voltage stabilizer, whether store bought or home grown, needs a good ground. Grounding it to the back of the gauge (as is typicall

Check the easy stuff first. The easiest is to check if the tank is venting properly. Open the cas cap. If you get a big rush of air, there's your problem. Check the lines to/from the charcoal caniste

I thought vapor lock was starvation due to the fact that the fuel pump can't pump vapor. You may have issues with the float valves in the carb. Does it make any difference if the tank is full vs. nea

Depends on the application. No worries of you are going to paint. If you are going to powder coat, maybe not. If you are going to zinc plate, that's a real issue. If it is a machine part (as opposed
