My TR4A (a 1967, named Sarah) isn't going to be a concours car, ever - she's had too hard a life (coming up on 300K miles, I believe) and I don't think I have the right mental attitude to ever take h

I would check the dashpot oil (the stalling out when standing on the gas) to see a) if there is any and b) if it's too thin. You may want to try a thicker oil to increase the enrichment effect. Also,

It sounds as if your oil pressure limiter isn't adjusted quite right - I believe that the spec for the TR6 is 75psi (hmm, can't find it right now). This isn't easily adjusted, and I wouldn't worry ab

But what will that do to the pressure when cold? It's already at 90+, how high can it go and still stay in the engine? <g> Probably nothing - I'll bet that your relief valve is set around 90.

Don't know about your TR6, but I suspect that since it's an early one, the front geometry is the same as my late 4A. I have the red BPNW springs on all four corners and am very happy with them. Ride
