[TR] tr3 distributor (score: 131): Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Sun, 11 Dec 2011 18:32:03 -0800; Finding parts can be a problem, though, and you should really run it on a distributor machine to see if you got the advance curve right. Yes, that's right. It's puts a knee in the advance curve, for; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00545.html (8,172 bytes)

But the harness wiring should be able to take all that the alternator can produce, even with a shorted regulator. So ther; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00558.html (9,744 bytes)
383. [TR] TR250 Ammeter replacement (score: 131): Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2011 09:35:49 -0800; I believe the original was 30 amps (approx). However if there is any chance you might install some upgrades, like a high power stereo, driving lights or a bigger alternator, then I would go for the; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00559.html (8,097 bytes)
384. [TR] ring gap ect. (score: 131): Author: TR3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2011 21:15:15 -0800; Might not apply to you, but I was told that the last set of new rings I bought for my TR3A were deliberately oversize, so they could be matched to the bore. I don't recall the details offhand, but I; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00564.html (7,972 bytes)
385. [TR] [6pack] hazard lights (score: 131): Author: tr3driver at ca.rr.com (Randall); Date: Wed, 14 Dec 2011 13:28:13 -0800; Not surprising, since they share the wiring to the lamps.

The kit included the harness, and either the factory or the dealer would have been; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00596.html (10,386 bytes)

My post in the wee hours was not only misinformed, but poorly phrased as well. I was curious to see what the manuals had to say about whether Stanpart 502251 inclu; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00613.html (9,718 bytes)

Dunno if that's true, but it makes sense to me. -; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00796.html (8,793 bytes)

Also, there are several separate green wires connected to that fuse. It might help to disconnect them one at a time, to at least identify which a; /html/triumphs/2012-01/msg00459.html (8,427 bytes)
