Listers,
I recieved 13 different responses to my question about the brass plug in the
valve covers on TR3B's and TR4's.
3 TCF cars had the plug (100% of respondents)
8 CT cars had the plug (80% of respondents)
2 CT cars did not have the plug (20% of respondents)
I was kind of surprised to see there were not reponses from TSF owners.
I'm not sure what to make of that....
One of the CT cars that didn't have it has been owned for 30 years by the
same owner and he feels that the car most likely came this way. The other
was a very early CTcar.
Also, one of the CT cars was originally shipped to Australia and it had the
brass plug.
As usual with a Standard Triumph product it would seem that anything
could be original in this case!
Thanks to all who responded, I tried to reply to everyone that sent me info
but if I missed someone I'm sorry about that!
