I don't, but it should be easy enough to calculate from 1.5 - 2 'flats', which is 1/4 - 1/3 turn of the nut. Multiply that by the thread pitch (which I don't recall offhand) and you have the clearan

Unfortunately, being a post-60K car, the electrical differences are considerable. Starting with the control box, turn signal flasher and fuse block all being mounted differently than the earlier car

Worst case, the cylinder with the broken rings will pump enough oil to knock when you can't hear it (oil has a terrible octane rating) which will eventually break the piston. Lots of little metal pi

Yup, that's it. The crank dog is incorporated in the head of the rather stout bolt that holds the hub to the crank. One method that's been suggested to remove the bolt is to use a socket (preferably

Certainly looks like my TR3A handle. Sure, could even be a plain bolt. That's what mine is at the moment ... since I'll never sell the car, I have to be my own DPO <g> If all else fails, take it apa

FWIW, the factory used shims for that purpose too ... P/N 109582. They already have slots. $2.25/each at TRF ... flat washers are certainly cheaper but the shims are 'correct'. Randall

I suppose anything is possible ... but it seems most unlikely to me. A very stout piece of hardware ... is the end of your crank also chewed up ? It's no more rugged than the dog, so they should both

Of course ... In that case, the "+" terminal would go to the dizzy. You might want to double-check that you have a "12v" coil and not a later "6v". An original TR3A coil would be marked "CB" and "SW
