Ran into a garage owner on Vancouver Island who was a Leyland dealer mechanic
in Vancouver circa 1970. He said that BL brought in a TR5 (or early TR6 PI?,
can't remember) as a marketing tool. It was eventually sold locally, and,
the dealer mechanics cussed the Lucas PI as it was troublesome for them! I
would doubt they had the specialized PI training and tools of a dealership in
Britain or other markets.
Triumph wasn't the only one to have issues
with early fuel injection systems. I recall wishing my 74 Volvo had twin
SUs.
Cheers, Bruce Simms
