Hi all does anyone know where i might get an uncut key for a TR7 my friend has lost the original but i have a good spare but want a second as standby? There used to be a chap at stoneleigh who did them but i think he passed away. Clem

hi Steve, I am thinking of selling my speke built (restored) TR7. V plate coupe, the reason not poor build quality but too many cars in the stable. At the moment the car is here in France and has been used to lend to friends who come and stay and want to enjoy the classic car experience. I would like it to go to a good home. it recently flew through a French Mot with no advisories. If your are interested then PM me Cheers Clem.

Have you checked the operation of the master? Is it a new one? Have the seals inside been changed ? I have found in the past even the new masters can pass the oil over the seals and you don’t get the full amount of oil operating the slave piston. So you may have fluid loss over the seals over the plunger in the master and therefore less oil to move the slave pistol and therefore reduced travel ? I also noticed that you have a braided pipe to the slave is this expanding when you operate the system under pressure? Try the original pvc one. Clem

Hi all thanks for the replies, it was a sticking throttle that remained open when it should have been closed! As suggested, a small adjustment was required and hey presto! Back to normal. Panic over thanks everyone for their quick suggestions.
