Well I guess I had to weigh in also. I like the 6 degrees concept, so lets expand on that and add some symbolic logic (from Lewis Carroll of Through the Looking Glass fame). Triumph builds cars, Hond

On the '72 you should get vacuum at the Retard unit on the distributor at idle IF the engine is cold to warm. When the engine goes hi-temp the thermal switch in the cooling line vents the vacuum sou

The spark coil works by the effects of a collapsing magnetic field. All transformers operate by changing magnetic fields. The basic theory is that a magnetic field crossing a wire will induce a volt

I have seen a number of comments here that indicate that the ballast resistor reduces the current. This is not the case. in any given series circuit, and anything that is across a battery is in gener

You're data corresponds exactly with the data I did on my '72. You are also right about the accuracy of the GPS, except make sure the test area is as straight as possible. The speed shown on the GPS

OK you caught me:) But, the issue is not really the amount of current flow through the ballast resistor and coil but the voltage across the coil. Assume that the ballast resistor causes a drop of vo

DO you have vacuum retard only on your car? You didn't give the year of your TR so it's an open question. My '72 has only the retard unit(looks a lot like an US type advance unit) if your vacuum lin
