Yes, the TR6 had PI (petrol injection) in the UK. I am not sure about
any other markets, although I tend to think that the Federalized cars
were the only ones not to be injected. Remember, the majority of TR6s
came to the States.

I have heard stories both ways about the reliability, so I don't really
know for sure.
