I have a 73 TR6. The PO did a frame off restoration and the car looks good. This is the first LBC I've owned so, even though I'm ok with a wrench, I'm in uncharted waters. The problem is that the cho

In my book after $900, the car should run right almost no matter what the tuning problem was!!! Assuming it hasn't been more than a few months since the repair, I would take it back to them and comp

I agree with Jim, for $900 your mechanic should at least be able to tell you why it doesn't run right ! Legal action may be required here. If they didn't fix the problem, you should get your money b

Wes, When I purchased the car, I drove it home. I was a little too brave. The electric fuel pump installed by the PO failed... in Indianapolis... a couple of hours from home. I have since converted

Wow. This is great! This should keep me busy for a while. I'm not sure that he is capable of getting it right. The car did run better when I picked it up it was warmed up. The PO could have changed j

Those clear fuel filters can be deceiving; you could have a bunch of muck in there and not notice it unless you remove and verify. BTDT R. Ashford Little II '70 TR6 CC54994

That statement seems suspicious ... the most common problem when installing an electric fuel pump is too much pressure, not too little. It may have been clogged with crud from the tank, or there may

What is the expected fuel pressure? Since this is a nagging problem, I'm considering installing an in-line fuel pressure gauge. Thanks again, Dale

Not quite true, my Stag wears a paper element filter because it's original (no sediment bowl) and my LBC support vehicle wears one because it's fuel injected (and therefore very sensitive to dirt in
