I've finally satisfied a life-long dream and recently purchased a 1972 TR6 with 71K miles on it. Got it home and after less than 24 hours I became very intimate with its hydraulic clutch! <g> But in

It wasn't really the mess that bothered me. I never did get the canister out from the engine! I just couldn't find a spot large enough to either drop it through or pull it up! I finally ended up dum

I didn't notice anything when I changed the oil. The old stuff just looked typically dirty. Definitely not gunked up. I think that's what probably happened somewhere along the line. There are enough

Thanks to all who responded to my questions! I think I've seen it down to 25-30 lbs at idle, but I believe that's as low as I've seen it. I'll watch it closely! <g> Nothing happens when I toggle the

But what will that do to the pressure when cold? It's already at 90+, how high can it go and still stay in the engine? <g> Thanks! One More Thing to add to my shopping list. Bruce Krobusek Rochester

APT is a name I'm unfamiliar with - I'll keep an eye out for 'em. I noticed that my TRF catalog had bronze guides available, along with valve seats they recommended for use with no-lead fuel. Commen

I'm presently using 10W-40. Wouldn't I expect a higher pressure (both hot & cold) with the 20W-50? When idling it drops from about 50 psi cold (roughly) to about 25 psi or so after 20-30 minutes of

Does the cable appear to move, but the hood just not pop up? I recently had the same problem with my TR6 - after working fine for the two weeks I've had the car, I suddenly couldn't open the hood. (

Ken: Aha! <g> I'm willing to bet that's it! That might explain why the radiator & radiator hose routing match an earlier configuration of engine. OTOH, near as I can tell my 6 is one of the early 197

Yup. But it seems that it only happens after I've had the front end up on jackstands. I don't believe I've seen any blue smoke the last few times I've started it. That's kind of what I thought, so I

According to notes I got from the previous owner he replaced all of the U-joints. It actually seems as if the play and clunk is in the rear end. I don 't remember if I got the same results from the

Although I can't pinpoint an exact cause, the first thing you need to do is to get rid of the old brake fluid. When it turns black it's tellling you that it's no good. So, for starters, I'd put in a
