Kevin--If you have prepared the engine for startup by using CamLube on the working face of the bearings and cam lobes and their followers, and plenty of oil when tapping in the pistons, this should p

John--On #2, the replacement switch I received came with a rectangular steel ring that secures the switch to the back of the dash. It was a real pain to install, but it holds well. This opening was h

John--If you remove the "parts" from inside the trailing arm, you could tilt the arm more. This should allow the removal of the bolt(s) that hold the bracket to the frame. See instructions in the Ben

Michael--The pistons should retract just as you thought, with just a litttle pressure against them with a soft tool. Since this isn't working for you, obviously something is holding them out. (Anti-s

John--If you really want to know if there are vacuum losses you can use a vacuum gauge at the vacuum source (carburetor), and compare it to the reading at the end (distributor retard canister). They

Tomislav--It looks like Triumph put holes in all three of the "arms" in the pedal box, I suppose that way they could interchange the brake or clutch arm during assembly. The brake pedal doesn't reall

John V.--To avoid fixing things that ain't broke, I'd suggest that you try duplicating the source of the brake fluid "leak". Wipe down all suspected areas, and then jack up the rear of the car again.

Dave--I'm not sure I understand the clock references to where the timing marker is pointing, but I'll proceed as if I do! There's a couple of possibilities as to what you are seeing. One (less likely

Dave--If the timing is really jumping around as a timing light indicted, the engine would respond with speed changes, at idle. If the timing really isn't changing, and the driveability issue is not r

Billy--Unless you have a good oxy-acetyline torch in your shop, I would take the car to the local muffler shop. They should have the facilities to heat and straighten pipes and bars. Can't help with

Stu--Is there is a chance that the manifold gasket is not compressing because the manifold studs are in "backwards"? The end of the stud with the shortest threads are to be screwed into the head, lea

Vance--Some times the wrong heat range of the plug (too hot) will cause the appearance of a lean mix. If this is not the case, round up all of the causes for the lean mix. When using a good CD igniti

Don--The clutch operating shaft has to come out the side of the case in order to remove the fork, T/O bearing and such. Welding the fork to the shaft will certainly take the load from the fork pin, i

Brian Schlorff sums it up nicely, in that the original fork bore doesn't share the load thruout the taper. But...if one were to start fresh and make a new tapered bore thru the center boss of the for

Michael--When U-joints start to fail, they usually moan and groan when flexing, as the needle bearings start to self destruct. Sometimes a shot of grease will add life to them, if so equipped. The se
