I'm redoing my wirning harness and was wondering what kind of tape I should use. I noticed that when I took off the old tape, there was no glue. Is that how the tape is? Can I use ordinary electrical

Hi Pat, Do not use ordinary electrical tape you will regret it later. The tape you require is available from electrical wholesalers and has no glue. It is OK to finish a run with a couple of turns of

Moss has a harness tape code 162-030 which is blue. Way back in 1979 I did mine in electrical tape and wish I had the non-sticky stuff back then. Now my black taped version is quite hard, very in-fl

I recently repaired the wires which connect to the starter on my TR6. The original wires had become excessively "baked" from the exhaust manifold heat. It got so that if I flexed the wires, the insu

Peter, Check your local speed shop which sells header wrap. Not that you have to wrap your headers. The same company makes a heat resistant sleeve for wiring and fuel lines. It just slips over. It's

I recently posted a question to the list about the benefits of allowing engine oil pressure to build before actually firing up the engine vs. letting it build up once the engine is actually started.

Are you still running with the original mechanical fuel pump? If so, I wonder if, over time, the benefits of pre-built-up oil pressure might be negated (or worse) by the amount of unburnt fuel that w

Yes. (And I already have the spin on adapter - leak-free so far). It is just that I seem to drive my car on weekends only and so usually go a few days between running the engine. I never considered

Oops! I'd meant to add that, if you had converted to an electric fuel pump, it could be switched as well to help prevent the possible scenarios I conjured up. However, even this would be of dubious v

Sorry I should have mentioned in the original post that I seem to only drive my car on weekends. Therefore, the oil has a fairly long period of time to drain from the cylinder walls. So the use inter

Here's what one other says on the point. I fully agree with Andy. Obvoiusly most auto manufacturers didn't think that oiling upon initial startup was a problem or else there would be many alternative

I think your concern is valid. I own a '73 TR6 which gets driven about 1000 miles a year. I've had this LBC for 9 years and the engine was rebuilt professionally by the previous owner. In the first

Here's a thought for you. You could make this an automatic process if you run the power wire for your coil through a oil pressure switch. Find a switch that is an open circuit below a certain amount

After reading the thread of answers to your concerns, my suggestion would be to make whatever changes you feel necessary to insure peace of mind. It does sound like a pre-oiler would be preferable t

The best thing to do, is if you do want to build up oil pressure before starting, without a pre-oiler, don't pull the choke out. Why you would wan't to do this compleatly baffels me. It takes so litt

Hey Michael, That to me sounds like one hell of an idea. I'll wait to hear other thoughts on this and if the concensus is good I might do it on my spitfire. Which sits a lot. Keep those thoughts comi
