I think I replied. Would love to see these fitted and on a working TR. We would then have the benefit of it all works and a better upgrade. Many so called upgrades are questionable! Regards Harry

David re-read my post. It is easy peasy to do this. Regards Harry

We are so fortunate to have the likes of Pete Cox and others to service our gearboxes (rebuilds) and also Tom Cox (his son) taking up the mantle and serving his apprenticeship under Pete and keeping the tradition going. There can not be many youngsters out there who want to learn the trade and get their hands dirty. We do not know how lucky we are! Regards Harry

As an owner of my highly modified TR5 am I allowed to drive legally on German roads. My daughter has an Historic Alpha and some of them were stopped last year as some of the cars were modified. I did attend the anniversary of the TR6 in Osnabruck in my TR5 with no problems and thumbs up by the police so has it tightened up now?. As a club (NLG)we have been all over Europe with no problems in the past. Has it changed? Regards Harry

Interesting when I measured the surface area of my Hi Spec four pot calipers,vented disc's around fifteen years ago they were less than standard but spread over a larger plane. Sort of peed me off at the time when I found out but hey ho, they have served me well.Changing to Mintex 1144 brought an upgrade, then Hawk pads (better) and never had fade despite thrashing a few race circuits on track days. Changing my servo for the Twin chamber Volvo one was a game changer. Regards Harry

Yes Rich V&C took over from Stevsons I believe. Regards Harry

Stephsons did mine and I also had a pair done by V&C. Both excellent. They refuse to do after market ones which tells its own story. Regards Harry

Already in the forum. Do your research and you will find it. Delron bush kit by the guy in the USA. Lovely piece of kit. Regards Harry

Now sold thank you John. Regards Harry

Unless you drill out the outlet say 10mm and the risk of damaging it how does the external bigger bore connector work. I have fitted a on off tap that has 10mm bore and drilled out the male to male connector by a smaller amount so it still seals. Is it the buenelle effect! (sorry wrong spelling) more pressure from small to large? Probably talking rubbish but the tank outlet is around 8mm or 6mm and anything after it 8-10mm. I have changed out my petrol pump to a lesser pressure one (USA made) with 6mm unions as I am on EFI (45PSI) and very quiet now. Will see how that goes Terry

Jeff Marks changed out the track rods ends with out any fuss and noted that the drilling was not deep enough, nor was the thread depth.The sealed for life are correct and soon fitted and tracked at my favourite tyre depot. I have been using Moss (formally Cox and Buckles, Manor road) since the late 70,s or early 80,s and very glad of it. With out them where would we be! Happy bunny now. Regards Harry

Have you solved it Brooke? Regards Harry

Replied John. Thanks. Regards Harry

Check your rotor arm and if it has a rivet in the top, bin it. Yes check your fuel pressure. Where are you as someone in your group will have the necessary tools. The second picture is of a bottle cap seal in the tank and floated around till it settled on the outlet and stopped the flow of petrol. Took ages to diagnose. Regards Harry
