We've discussed this at length, in a nutshell there are flashers being sold as suitable replacements that are not suitable replacements.; /html/triumphs/2004-09/msg00634.html (8,394 bytes)

There was a subtle change in the profile of the dog teeth and shift ring during TR6 production; and I've heard that mixing the t; /html/triumphs/2004-09/msg00640.html (8,254 bytes)

RE: TR6 gearbox to engine re-assembly (score: 1): Author: "Randall" <tr3driver@comcast.net>; Date: Tue, 7 Sep 2004 17:42:42 -0700; Jim, just to be clear, I've never taken apart a TR6, I only know a TR2/3/4 uses dowels. I didn't mean to imply otherwise. Exactly. But since these are 'specials', rather than standard hardware (whic; /html/triumphs/2004-09/msg00643.html (8,813 bytes)

I have done it by ear though, and the results were close enough. Not to mention not doing this at 10:00 at night.; /html/triumphs/2004-09/msg00656.html (7,485 bytes)

RE: Altitude vs temp (score: 1): Author: "Randall" <tr3driver@comcast.net>; Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2004 13:25:37 -0700; There is a small effect, but it is small compared to the relatively wide band of mixtures where the engine will run fine. Even 30F should not require readjustment. 0F might, but I've never lived whe; /html/triumphs/2004-09/msg00661.html (7,561 bytes)

They rarely fail, but it is possible, and a replacement seal is included in the MC rebuild kit.
