Guys and Gals, I really need your collective wisdom. My TF has seem limited action in recent years. The main reason is the incredible amount of heat being generated, making it quite uncomfortable. I

Hmm. The only way a clutch can make heat is when it is slipping. This results when the clutch is worn (or oily). Your symptoms do not sound like a worn clutch. It would grab at only the last little b

I agree, my TF runs at 85 C in moderate temps, 95 in hot weather. In the winter, it always runs cold as does the heater. As we say when driving a T type, whatever it is doing outside, its doing insid

I agree with you guys, though my experience is with a TD. Make sure you aren't running with the timing retarded and that the carbs are if anything a hair to the rich side. Also, there are those holes

Hi Don, Some random thoughts on the heat-- Could it be that you have two problems with the clutch? 1-that it does not separate sufficiently to allow for smooth shifting and 2-that it's slipping from

Charlie, the funny thing is that the heat doesn't seem to bother the engine, just the people inside. We never take a long drive without sox, as the heat can toast your feet. Mike

Isn't it general automotive wisdom that retarding the timing makes the car generally run cooler? I am thinking of that classic graph of ignition timing versus power. Power is a round topped trace, wi

At the Mad Dogs & Englishmen meet at Hickory Corners, Mi. last Sunday, I met Scott Helms, AKA "trmgafun". While admiring several Big Healeys, we came across one with an unfamiliar door in the side,

Mike, I drive the TD all the time without sox, but I'd never do it with sandals or any kind of shoe that would allow bare skin to get against a surface of the car down in the footwell. That would cau

I remember seeing a TR-3 at a meet that was equipped with what the driver called "air conditioning". Four inch flexible clothes dryer hose bent around the right side of the windscreen with the openin

You wrote about potential clutch problems. Surely, aren't the brakes meant to slow the car down? Then, having slowed the car down, you select the gear that you need for the speed that you are travel
