So I was decending the Pike's Peak Highway (about the 13,000 foot level) when what should I spy with my little eye coming the other way? A nice white TR6 with a hardtop. Are you on the list? Did you

You are confusing pushrod length and lever length. A longer pushrod doesn't change the relationship between pedal travel and master cylinder piston travel. The only thing it changes is the position o

Did I tell you about the time I drove my TR6 up Pike's Peak only to see two Model T's already up there? I got pictures. Dave

If you replaced a .75 inch diameter master with a .7 inch cylinder then you've lost some motion at the slave end. Try using the hole closest to the pivot and see if that helps. Dave

If you ask 10 list members you will get 12 opinions on how and when to use the overdrive. Here's mine: Use it as if it were another gear (which is what it is). If you are loafing along and want to up

Never ever ever undertake a restoration expecting to break even. The numbers never work out. The two reasons to do a restoration are 1) sentimental attachment to the vehicle and 2) the enjoyment of t

Are you sure it is the rear? Disc brakes are notirious for squeeling if everthing is not quite right. Also, did your old wheel cylinders leak? Are your new cylinders leaking? brake fluid on the shoes

I'm slowly making progress on the 57 TR3. I bought a new ground strap and I can't remember where it gets attached. (Actually, the car was so patched up I'm sure it was not connected per factory anywa

Naaa. Over-engineering would be putting a strain gauge in the parking brake cable and building an electronic circuit to indicate when it is applying tension on the shoes. And once you do that you may

The fact that your supply pipe is only warm and your return pipe is cold suggests a coolant flow restriction. If the heater core itself is flowing freely then check the supply and return paths. The s

Did you verify the gauge reading? Maybe the engine is getting up to temperature but the gauge is reading low. Dave

Usually it is the opposite problem. When the voltage stabilizer goes out the gauge reads high. I'll wager it is your temp sender. Good luck. Dave

But in fourth gear there is no motion between the gear and hub that would wear out the fourth gear synchro. That could make for premature wear in the second and third gear synchro but not the fourth.
