Me too You can go off people you know Bri

That is the type we used in the electrical industry for 240V application Red for up to 1.5 mm wiring and blue for 2.5mm wiring. They are readily available from most electrical wholesalers probably cheaper than RS etc. However to ensure a good connection you do need to use the proper ratchet crimp tool , which are not cheap.

Happy birthday Tim Have a great day Bri

You could could try Glenn Waldron at GW Autos ,Frithville nr Boston, Tel 01205 750021. He has my Tr6 at the moment which we agreed to do on an as and when time line as I can't really use it at present. He may be able to do yours rather than working on mine. Nice chap to deal with. Brian

Roger You will need a hospital break when Sue sees that one Bri

Being unable to give either of my classics the use they deserve ,in a dark moment I considered moving them on, so have been watching prices for the last 9 months and have noticed a distinct drop in auction estimates, prices achieved and numbers sold. I think values outside of dealer asking prices have dropped about 20% this year, with many not selling at their usual rate. Gave me the required kick up the backside so they will be staying , even a half hour now and again is worth the upkeep just for the smile on my face. My thought is that for anyone trying to sell privately or at auct

Happy Birthday Ian have a great day Brian

HI Colin My TR6 came without a fan and a micky mouse scrap yard electric replacement which I very soon scrapped and fitted a rad mounted Kenlow. The PO left the original fan mounting in place which I have never removed. it's been running like that for 14 years with out issue. I can't see that much noticeable benefit will be achieved on a road car , apart from loosing cooling if the Revotec fails, but I'm sure the gurus will be along soon to explain. Brian

Hi Steve Most TR6's on standard injection run lumpy at idle and can be a bit stinky. If it runs as you say I doubt there is a problem. Mine has a standard CP unit and runs much the same as yours . I can't help with identifying your cam but am sure someone more knowledgeable will be along soon. In the meantime put some miles in and enjoy the experience ,the more you drive it the more you get to know it. Brian

Hi John A bit of thread drift but still useful for those undertaking repair work as volunteers and understanding the subject is useful knowledge . I see no reason to move it. May well be of more use to folk on this thread. Brian

True Stuart, but I am not sure there is any automated filtering of replies. Brian Update, just been investigating, some adverts now require a member log in to reply, so perhaps these advertisers have ticked the members only box on the entry form.

Roy The classified section is not a specific forum section it is only a link to the main TRR site . Anyone can access classified's direct from the internet without being a club member or forum user, so please BE AWARE when replying to contact's in the first instance, they just may not be genuine. Treat it as any other web sales site. Take care Brian

Fitted the Securon 500/30 to my 6 straight forward replacement for the original belts . Everything you need comes with the kit. PM me if you need a look I'm only in Waddington. Bri

Thanks for the input gents . I think Dynax for inside the chassis and Lanoguard every where else. Thanks Bri

It will soon be time to give the underside of the TR some TLC so have been looking at the available products. Recently two products are being promoted on You Tube, Nutrarust661 rust converter and Lanoguard protective coating derived from sheep's wool. While not mainstream in the classic car world similar products have been around for some time. Just wondering if any one on here has used these two product and are they any good or just snake oil? Cheers Bri
