Ha ha, nothing like a little humor and irony to launch a list. Trying to generate a couple megabytes in the first week, I see. I'd suggest upgrading to Land Rover brakes and suspension, since they us

Hi, Ken. Fancy meeting you here! My first guess is it's just a little NH road salt in the bleed nipples. First try removing the bleed nipple entirely and see if you get flow under pedal pressure. If

I'll weigh in with another opinion lacking in direct evidence. I'd recommend it. You don't have the unleaded filler neck so you are definitely at risk. You also definitely don't have a catcon to plu

I don't know about the TR4 specifically, but the Monza twin-pipe TR6 exhaust has two tiny tubes passing through the frame channel. I am certain the combined area is much less than one decent size pi

Well, you could spend a fortune with the Roadster Factory and get them free during the winter parts sale. I've gotten most of my rusty ones replaced this way, a few at a time. TRF is also $5 for the

The usual advice is look at the rubber on the pedals and the carpeting in the driver's footwell. 2000+ hours at the wheel wears the rubber through, 500 hours much less so. Steering wheel and seat le

Ohmigod! I have an Xr4ti and I love my TR6 for the stump-pulling torque of the six. The Merkur is hard work to drive fast with no torque and no power until the turbo spools up. Our Nissan Stanza can

A hearty Amen! Variety is the spice of life. A major reason I like TRs & MGs is that the Jag and Healey crowd seem more prone to high-buck snobbiness and hyper-restoration. (That, and I don't have $

Anyone remember the annual model changes that were obligatory in the US back then? There would be a fall launch, and in, say, Sept. 1970 you could buy a shiny new 1971 car of your choice. Must have
