Don't remember off hand if brake light circuit is fused. It's on the pedal. These do fail occasionally.

Re: Brake Lights 69 Spitfire (score: 1): Author: Andy Mace <AMACE@unix2.nysed.gov>; Date: Wed, 1 Mar 1995 15:37:22 PST; Yeah, pain in the neck, as all wiring for engine bay/front lights goes THROUGH the fuse box -- no way round that without becoming a dreaded PO! Minor correction: the Spit box has three 35 amp fuses.; /html/triumphs/1995-03/msg00009.html (7,717 bytes)

Re: Vitesse (score: 1): Author: Andy Mace <AMACE@unix2.nysed.gov>; Date: Wed, 8 Mar 1995 11:46:49 PST; I can't say for sure if a tonneau cover was an "official" option for the Vitesse (I assume it was), but it definitely was for the Herald.

Re: Spitfire issues (rear spring sag) (score: 1): Author: Andy Mace <amace@unix2.nysed.gov>; Date: Fri, 17 Mar 1995 15:02:30 -0800 (PST); Odds are it's a worn or even broken leaf spring, an all-to-common problem on Spitfire 1500s. Replacement with a new spring is your best bet. Unfortunately, I don't know if that's an absolutely perman; /html/triumphs/1995-03/msg00054.html (7,076 bytes)

Plastic probably will be a stronger replacement (and less prone to soaking up oil), but I've heard stories about some i; /html/triumphs/1995-03/msg00081.html (7,534 bytes)

Re: SPITS/UNLEADED (score: 1): Author: Andrew Mace <amace@unix2.nysed.gov>; Date: Thu, 6 Apr 1995 12:36:16 -0900 (PDT); I think that, at least in the U.S., 1977 might have been the first year that unleaded would have been REQUIRED as converters were first installed about that time.

Re: TR6 questions (score: 1): Author: Andrew Mace <amace@unix2.nysed.gov>; Date: Fri, 7 Apr 1995 11:48:04 -0900 (PDT); Most sources say unless you drive exceptionally hard, you're probably ok without.
