Hate to say this, Scott, but I have had somewhat similar problems. The thrust washer inside the planetary carrier had broken and gotten ground up by the gears, the resulting swarf was interfering wit

Indeed, they can even appear round on the balancing machine, but still cause vibration when loaded, if there is a variation in stiffness. But it rarely happens IMO; and like Bill I have been through

I didn't exactly rebuild it, but I have had mine apart and back together. Didn't work when I took it apart, did work after I put it back together. (Previous rebuilder had apparently assembled it wron

That's old news in CA, we've had "oxygenated" fuel since 1995 or so. My opinion, all soft fuel lines should be replaced every 10-15 years whether they need it or not. And pretty much any soft fuel l

If it was a modern paper element filter, then you can limp home just by driving a screwdriver or similar object through the center of the filter. BTDT. But in my experience the stock setup with the

What a coincidence. My TR3's condenser died yesterday, while I was hurrying to the shop to pick up the other car. But I was basically stopped in the #1 lane in LA rush hour traffic, so I walked it to

This is just a theory at this point, but might be worth some consideration. The peg that rides in the worm inside the steering box is conical, but the sides are fairly steep, and with proper adjustme

Try clicking on the link that says "Triumph TR3 web site". The link points to http://www.tr3a.info/ But that winds up being a redirect to http://www.expeditionlandrover.info/1aladdinSite/index.htm (

I've not tried it yet, but something similar to this: http://retr0bright.wikispaces.com/ might work. They are talking about brightening ABS plastic, while your washer bottle is probably polypropylen

Pariah? I hardly think so. It's just that the folks who don't feel the pressure to conform to the herd also don't talk about it much. Herman is selling Toyota transmissions for TRs as fast as he can

I'm not certain they are all the same, but the post-60K TR3A fuel gauge I just checked appears to have 3BA threads. -- Randall

Not I. But I would be more impressed if they talked about R-value (how well it insulates) rather than how 'pure' the aluminum is. Pure aluminum is an awful metal, it's only usable when alloyed with

Nope, doesn't work that way. What happens when one fixture is not grounded is that the current flows one filament to the bulb shell, then because that is not grounded, it goes back through the other

You should contact Larry (through the web site), as he does sell TR2-4 cams from time to time. In fact I posted on here the last time he mentioned he was having a run made, but the response was minim

The idea is that it is safer to have some device to stop the pump in case of an accident. Of course you also want it controlled by the ignition switch (so it doesn't run with the switch off), and IMO

Nope, that's just perfect. Congratulations on getting it running! BTW, the 'correct' setting for the valves depends on whether you have aluminum or cast iron rocker shaft pedestals. I believe a TR2
