I have a 1973 TR6, which I have owned for ten years. Having just graduated from high school at the time, I knew very little about cars at all, to say nothing of triumphs. Oil in the carburettors? Who

I had the same trouble that you describe regarding your clutch not disengaging when the pedal is all the way to the floor. My car still has that problem and a friend's car had it too. We fixed my fr

Now this could be very instructive... One thing I'm looking for, obviously, is other folks with the same inexplicable trouble. I suspect, after dealing with this problem one way or another for ten y

Pete, it may or may not be the fluid destroying the seals. I had a `63 Spitfire in which someone had put the incorrect fluid into the brake system before I bought it. The seals (and this is the typic

My clutch on y 72 TR6 works okay, but the fluid in the reservoir is always a black, gunky mess. It's been working in that state for years. One weak point on the TR clutch is the taper pin that holds

Michael, Mark and other interested parties: Yes, the TR6 clutch hydraulic line does have a flexible portion of hose. But, it is not rubber, but rather a very hard, but flexible (sort of!) nylon hose.

Good point. I'm replacing the tranny in my six and I will check the end float on the crank while I'm in there. Thanks, Mark Anderton 1972 Triumph TR6 (daily driver) 1984 Jaguar XJ6 (2 ea - some peopl

My sister has owned the Land Rover since new and currently uses it to haul horse manure down to the woods. I has definitely been "rode hard and put away wet" but it's an amazing vehicle. I do all the

The official workshop manual says to put a dial gauge (you DO have a dial gauge, don't you?) on the front pulley. "Lever" the pulley in and out and check for .006-.008 in. endfloat. Mark Anderton 197
