TR3 Engine Stutter (score: 1): Author: "Jerry Goulet" <jgoulet@thomsontechnology.com>; Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2005 09:30:29 -0800; For the first ten minutes or so that the engine runs it will stutter or even die when revved. If the throttle is applied slowly then it accelerates smoothly. This problem clears up after the engine i; /html/triumphs/2005-03/msg00096.html (7,539 bytes)

Someone already mentioned dashpot oil ... heavier oil will provide richer mixture when you first open the throttle. IMO 3-in; /html/triumphs/2005-03/msg00103.html (7,918 bytes)

My TR3B would not run right at all, choke or not, until she warmed up. Same symptoms as you describe. I ran her like this for a few years.

I had a similar but opposite experience before I finally dialed in the MGB SU's a DPO had put on my GT6. In cold weather it would run moderately okay for half an hour or so.

"Yellow" springs, and the needles are AAA, I believe.

The needle I tried which didn't work was ABL, not AAB. Definitely didn't work with the yellow springs.

What it does mean is that it's up to the driver to adjust the "choke" (which in reality is a mixture adjustment, it doesn't 'choke' airflow on a SU carb) to o; /html/triumphs/2005-03/msg00131.html (8,131 bytes)
