There are lots of questions around Bosch fuel pumps but I dont see one that answers the question I have. The fuel pump inlet from Glencoe has a 16mm push on hose fitting exactly as my original failed Bosch pump had but the diameter of hose from the pre-filet is 10mm. The original hose looked like a piece of garden hose which was perished badly so I want to replace it but wondered what everyone was using. The distance is only about 4 inches or so between them meaning I cant get a reducer. I also cant find any 1/4 bsp fittings that have 16mm (or close) outlet as it needs to be a 90de

Thanks for the feedback. No matter what I do to test it still makes the noise though hitting it quite hard seems to have quieted it down As the pumps are not crazy money I will order a new one from Carl at Prestige.

Hi all, My Bosch fuel pump has started making an awful noise. I went out for about an hour and the car ran great, got back took the wife out for coffee and it misfired quite a bit as if fuel was an issue. Anyhow, when I stopped the car and then got back in to turn on the ignition I heard the noise you hear on the video. The pump is of unknown age though is going to be old because the link pipe is the old shape/style. I replaced the filters a little while ago with ones from prestige when it made a similar noise but then the pre pump filter was clogged up with scale from the tank. Nothing i

Hello all, wondering if anybody has one or knows of one available for just the lower valance as referenced here https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-908351 Thanks Tim

Its all fixed now as referenced in the thread, though thanks for replying.

Thanks Stuart. I did fear that so will get down to the electrical shop for some generic plugs.

I dont think it is Martin as they appear to be smaller unfortunately.

I dont think it is Roger. That shows as only needing 1 and I have 2 holes. I looked in the fuel section and body shell section but am drawing a total blank. I was thinking part number 78 here but it seems to be the smaller one in the corners. https://www.moss-europe.co.uk/shop-by-model/triumph/tr5-6/body-chassis/body-fittings/rear-body-floor-panels-tr6-1968-76.html

Hi all, I had a fuel tank leak and am in the middle of cleaning up and I am needing to get the 2 x 35mm grommets for underneath the fuel tank and I cannot for the life of me find the oem part number as the parts listings or web do not seem to show them as the ones I need. One was perished and the other was missing. I know 35mm grommets exist but I was hoping to get the original ones as the generic all seem to be inferior quality. Thanks

Hello all, Looking for some advice on clutch hydraulics. My TR6 is a rolling rebuild and the clutch hydraulics were weeping so I decided to the hydraulics, Master and slave cylinders and as the pipe snapped both ends when removing a new hose and and pipe were also fitted. All was working ok before I did the work but now I dont have enough throw to engage the gears as can be seen by the video. Also as can be seen by the photo of the dirty slave, it was fitted the wrong side of the plate and also odd was that the master cylinder pushrod had a welded piece added. Any thoughts on what could

Hello, I removed my engine last night due to seriously low compression on no5 (went from 50 psi to 160 wet test) and before I send it off for checking and machining I thought I would ask about. As can be seen from the photos its a recessed type (confirmed by the strengthening brace above the sump) but as its got no engine stamp on it, anything I should be aware of as I assume it came out of another car, presumably not a TR6. Thanks

Hello everyone Need help identifying a part please. During the strip down for engine removal yesterday I found the part in the picture on the floor. I think It was during the front crossmember removal and steering rack loosening as it was found at end of day cleanup. Its possible it was from other dismantling as it was under an axle stand. thoughts appreciated please thanks Tim
