X2 for the above.Stuart I think also uses/used this type, mine works well and smooth you can feel the notches on the dash control knob . Paul

Glad to see its got a wing mirror - for safety reasons.

Hi Gordon, You could ask me for £50 if you like. Delivered of course . Paul

Yeah Yeah nice bumpers, nice car, nice garage and the sun is shining. Well at least we don't have Kangaroos to run into and dent the Bumper (area around whipsnade excepted). I am only jealous Graham Paul

Like the correct position for the badges front and rear?. They look a little bit out from what I believe to be the original position. I stand to be corrected. Paul

Hi Andy, Glad you got it sorted and your tale is cautionary guide to the rest of us travelling abroad. A picture paints a thousand words someone once said, that is why I always carry a copy of Moss and Rimmer parts catalogues so you can point to the parts causing the problem as well as ease of ordering. Paul

All the above with an addition of a spare ignition barrel and keys. Cheap to buy and easy to fit should your ignition key break (as did mine) or indeed you lose your key. Paul

Hi Ian My tr5 (PI) has a pheonix manifold fitted by previouse owner and you can see were it has been fettled to fit. I had to remove it recently for some work to be done and it was a pig to get back on but managed in the end. Paul

X2 Me too Paul

Damson eh, Jammy bugger. They will start calling you Frank Ifield - YOD...L (those of a certain age will remember) Nice car Gordon Paul

AARRRRRRRGH !!! Nigel as you are aware I am having exactly and I mean exactly the same trouble. The oil is leaking in the same place, dribbling down behind the pulley. My next oil seal will be my 3rd and before I start I was hoping for some resolution to surface. I Feel your pain, boy do I feal your pain. Paul

A great watch. I am sure they must swear as well as have a good time. Am I jealouse - you bet.

Hi Nigel I am thinking it might be the case with the timing cover also. I will try the pressure test to see if it is excessive and maybe the problem. If not I will have to source a new cover and will probably suffer the leak until later on in the season and strip it all down again. I did it last time with the bonnet off for ease of access so might do this again as it gives you chance to clean up a few things at the same time, Hey ho TRs are fun. Paul

Hi Nigel, I am following this topic as I have exaexactly the same problem. I have replaced oil seal twice with double lip version and replaced sleeve, mine still has leak in exacrly the same place as it originally did . I am currently typing this underneath my car (its on a ramp) awaitng friend to view and try and help. I will let you know if I can fix problem. Not looking forward to removing everything again. Paul

All the way to TR
