Something happened today which makes me nervous and upon which perhaps someone can shed some light. I started my 74 TR-6 this morning and I heard a sort of clicking noise as I turned the key. The eng

Was it a buzz, or did it click once for every time you tried the key? If I get it right, the TR6 starter uses a solenoid to engange the pinion and close the points to make the starter turn the flywhe

I have a 74 TR6 also with a chronic ignition problem. When I go to start the car and turn the key to the start position, nothing happens for about 3 seconds, then the starter will engage. If I turn t

What you have described is usually a symptom of a corrosion at the battery terminals creating high resistance in the starting/charging circuit. When you turn the key there is simply not enough curren

I suspect the clicking noise is the solenoid indicating it isn't getting enough current to operate. I would FIRST disconnect the battery cables from the battery terminals and wire-brush/clean both t

Sounds like the same problem I had with my riding lawnmower last spring. It's not an LBC, it's a John Deere. But at least it's history also started with a tractor. Try cleaning the battery posts and

Dave, first check your battery terminals and connections. Are the terminals clean and are the connections tight? That COULD have caused both the starting and the charging problems. Hope that's all it

Clean and tighten your battery cable clamps. The clicking was probably arcing (electrical) over a gap in a loose clamp) Moving the battery re-established electrical connection. Try it. It's the cheap
