You should be able to find accelerometers much cheaper than $500! We buy a module that includes a 3-axis accelerometer and a DSP, and I think it's only about $30 in quantity. A quick Google turned up

While I agree, I am curious : Has anyone actually had a short stud fail when used with the steel wheel nuts (and not under racing conditions) ? I ran a lot of miles with steel wheels on wire wheel s

I have seen trouble with that configuration, although it didn't actually fail. The back of the wheel sat on the stud ends rather than on the taper, and worked back and forth on them. Had to be causi

205. [TR] Anyone rebuilding Lucas distributor vacuum units State Side? (score: 131)
Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall)
Date: Sat, 18 Jun 2011 23:05:28 -0700
Hardly worth the effort, IMO. The vacuum retard just increases fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and the engine's tendency to overheat at idle. Just plug the line and leave it non-operational. Set the

They are; but with that setup, the stud still goes all the way through the nut. The nut just isn't as tall as the disc wheel nut (which as I recall was enlarged very early in TR2 production, to avoi

I haven't. But I have found that using relays will prolong the life of the original switches practically forever. 0.1 amps (for the relay coil) produces only 1/10000 as much heat as 10 amps for the

Hate to say this, Scott, but I have had somewhat similar problems. The thrust washer inside the planetary carrier had broken and gotten ground up by the gears, the resulting swarf was interfering wit

Indeed, they can even appear round on the balancing machine, but still cause vibration when loaded, if there is a variation in stiffness. But it rarely happens IMO; and like Bill I have been through

I didn't exactly rebuild it, but I have had mine apart and back together. Didn't work when I took it apart, did work after I put it back together. (Previous rebuilder had apparently assembled it wron

That's old news in CA, we've had "oxygenated" fuel since 1995 or so. My opinion, all soft fuel lines should be replaced every 10-15 years whether they need it or not. And pretty much any soft fuel l

If it was a modern paper element filter, then you can limp home just by driving a screwdriver or similar object through the center of the filter. BTDT. But in my experience the stock setup with the

What a coincidence. My TR3's condenser died yesterday, while I was hurrying to the shop to pick up the other car. But I was basically stopped in the #1 lane in LA rush hour traffic, so I walked it to

This is just a theory at this point, but might be worth some consideration. The peg that rides in the worm inside the steering box is conical, but the sides are fairly steep, and with proper adjustme
