A really good manual does not exist. The best thing you can do is to look at old pictures, factory photos in the various books supply some good views. The Worrall and Turner book is also good. Or sim

The Morgan chassis is a bit of a flexible affair as we know and the years and corrosion do not improve it either. I cannot say what the factory does these days to improve replacement chassis althoug

Bob, if this is like an early Plus 8, there is a threaded collar that goes around the neck and holds it to the rear deck. If that is missing a simple hose clamp would hold it. These things really don

They probably used whatever they had lying around, remains of packing crates that various parts came in from outside suppliers or perhaps the remains of old pallets that the TR engines were bound to.

If this is typical of the early Smith's tachs, there is a plastic or nylon "box" under the thumb screw that is for a loop of wire that is actually the coil feed wire. The tach reads the pulses going

I've simply used exterior plywood, coated with the wood preservative of your choice, cupernol, or whatever. Give them a couple of coats of polyurethane for good measure. You can stain them to whatev

You may also be able to find a pump for a Ford Pinto 1600 x flow as this would work also. The other option is a small electric pump mounted near the tank, probably a better choice. /// unsubscribe/ch

I have had some experience straightening the tubes as well as the lug that the king pin mounts to at the top of a 4/4 front end. I would suggest heating the tubes till they are red hot and then strai

As I recall my 1600 x flow in my 4/4 would easily go to the 6000 rpm redline and was happy to cruise at virtually any speed needed to stay with traffic. Keep in mind this is a relatively modern (even

I thought the jerky motion was common to all Smith's speedo's. Clockwork or not. Oh, I know it's not, just teasing. Seriousley though, does anyone know the secret to calibrating these things? I know

It is quite possible that this engine will need to be removed and dismantled to repair. The TR engine has wet sleeves that may very well have become unseated at the bottom from your pushing on them.

You may want to try to back off the detents in the cover of the box that locate the shift forks. If this fails you may have a problem in the little balls and springs that locate the synchro hubs. Was
