Some items of interest. Mike Cook, author of several TR books, longtime Triumph, British Leyland and Jaguar PR person and all around very knowledgeable good guy will be joining us. Mike will be wandering around shooting pictures, renewing old acquaintances and meeting new friends. Mike is a very valuable resource to the Triumph community. He was there when it started, including the US Competition Department. Mike will be available at our booth several times during the week-end. Stop by and see Mike. Find out what it was really like "in the day" from one who was there from the start. Bring your questions. Also joining us, all the way from the UK, are John & Susanne Clancy. John is a videographer who has produced several Triumph DVD's. These will be available at our booth. The series of Triumph DVDs came about as a result of John Clancy's long term project to make a documentary of the history of the TR7 and TR8 series of cars. When initially released in 2007 it proved to be so popular the initial batch of pressed discs sold out within six months. As a result further Triumph productions were undertaken -- first of all the Triumph Stag, then the Spitfire and GT6, the traditional TRs, the pre-war cars and others. Currently a complete Triumph history is being compiled focusing on the saloon (sedan) models issued by the company plus 'California Air' featuring Kas Kastner and the US competitions department - this release is why John and his wife Susanne will be attending the Mitty at the end of the month to film some of the cars to help illustrate the story of why Triumph was so successful in America. John has interviewed many former Standard-Triumph engineering and styling personnel and you will find many of these appear within each of the DVDs. No one else currently making classic car documentaries goes into so much detail which makes these Triumph collectibles fairly unique and as time goes on we expect them to become quite historic in their own right. Further details and previews of each title can be seen at www.triumphdvd.co.uk We will be at the Mitty with our vendor trailer with both parts and regalia. We will have our gear reductions starters, steel braid brake hoses, suspension parts, rebuilt calipers, etc. If anyone needs "heavy items" - heads, gearboxes, engines, etc, we can bring these along - free freight is good! Please let me know any requests as soon as possible so we can be sure to get it loaded. Our vendor trailer - white, flip open sides, along with an EZ-Up tent will be up on the hill in vendor area. FOT and Kastner Cup shirts can be picked up at the trailer. Please try and pick up your shirts by Saturday afternoon. Not sure what time we will be packing on Sunday to leave. At the event you can reach me on my mobile - 419/230-9008. Mobile does not work in our building so please use any of the numbers listed on the signature line of this email for orders.

Unfortunately, unless you can get confirmation that this was done, you'll have to pull the head to check this. Sharpness at the edges of the combustion chambers and the sparkplug holes can get super hot if not stoned or polished down. IF---your timing marks on the damper pulley have shifted due to a breakdown in the rubber, you can get a feel for its accuracy, by noting where the pointer is when the key on the crankshaft is at TDC. Should be at "0". There is a more precise method for checking this, that being a tool for finding TDC without engine dismantling.

Its pretty easy. I have made such many years ago to establish TDC. Works beautifully when you are not sure. However there is one other issue: if by some chance the timing chain wheel and its mate on the crank was not precisely set, it is easy for the timing to be off by a few degrees. ________________________________________ From: 6pack-bounces@autox.team.net [6pack-bounces@autox.team.net] On Behalf Of Sally or Dick Taylor [tr6taylor@webtv.net] Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2012 7:56 PM To: Tomislav Marincic; 6pack@autox.team.net Subject: Re: [6pack] Pinging Engine Tom---Looks like you rounded up all of 'the usual suspects' for the cause of excessive pinging.

Triumph is the featured marque at the upcoming Walter Mitty vintage races at Road Atlanta. This event is also featuring a special all Triumph race and the Grand Marshall is "Kas"Kastner. Kas was the founder and head of the US Triumph Competition Department. He wrote the Compettion Preparation manuals that served as the bible for generations of Triumph racers. "FOT", group of TR racers, slong with Kas started the Kastner Cup award 10 years ago. Awarded by Kas and to his own personal criteria, this is a prestigious honor for any TR racer. We did a production run Kastner Cup T.shirts for the FOT group. The repsonse has been excellent and another, small run of shirts is being considered. Some of the proceeds go to FOT to fund things like helping with travel expense for honored guests, promoting FOT event involvement and more. So, if there is enough interest, we will do an additional print run of shirts. This is a one time only print run. Due to the number we printed on the first run, we were able to keep the cost down. Shirt prices will be higher than previous run due to lower volume and set-up expense. We need a minimum 36 piece order to do another run. Prices will be $15 Small - X-Large; $17 for XXL. If we have eough orders to run 48 or more, price goes down by $1 per shirt. Pictures of shirt are attached. If the images ares stripped, plesae email me and we will send directly to you. There is a possibility that we could have them done in time for pick at Road Atlanta. A go/no go date for ordering is close of business this coming Wednesday, April 18. Please call or email with your order. All contact information is on the signature line of this email. Thanks for your time and support.

So, may '75 TR-6 developed a serious bucking and jerking problem to the point where it was undrivable. I hope what I am about say helps someone down the line. I replaced the plugs and the plug leads. No improvement. I then replaced the points, the condensor, the dizzy cap, the dizzy ground lead, the low tension block from the dizzy to the coil, cleaned the fly weights and checked the springs on the retard unit--all to no avail. I replaced the fuel pump and the fuel filter. I removed, cleaned and replaced the primary ground strap from the battery to the engine block. No joy. I then took both Zenith carbs apart, cleaned them, checked the float levels, put heavier oil in the dash pots and put them back on the car. No improvement. Double checked the condition of the battery when charging--no problem there. It wasn't until I took the dizzy out again and measured the wear on the dizzy shaft that it came to me that the wobble in the dizzy shaft might be the source of the problem---and the reason the timing would jump 20 degrees when idling. I turned the shaft until the cam opened the points and pushed on the rotor in the opposite direction. I could close the point gap by doing so. So, I had new bushes made up and installed in the dizzy eliminating all wobble. Problem solved. Now, the engine sits and idles smoothly, starts immediately on the key, and seems to have more power. I also removed all the smog equipment and eliminated the vaccuum lines capping off the carbs and other vaccuum-related openings. I set the timing at 12 degrees BTDC at 800 rpm--and could not be more pleased with the results. No stumble, no jerking, no hesitation, and no stumble at low rpm while accelerating. Thanks to all those that made suggestions as to the nature of the problem.

My pulley was rebuilt by "Damper Dudes" and I never verified the marks during the rebuild. The tool arrested my piston at an indicated 16 degrees BTDC and 12 ATDC, so it appears that my timing marks are off by 2 degrees. Unfortunately, this doesn't solve my problem, because true TDC is at an indicated 2 BTDC, so I've actually been running LESS advance than I thought. No easy answers with these cars.

A TR6 motor at 12,000 rpm? Probably not. But at the Asheville VTR meet J K Jackson's race car came down the hill sounding like it was turning at least 9 grand - wow! mjb. ________________________________________ 6pack@autox.team.net Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html Archive: http://www.team.net/archive Forums: http://www.team.net/forums Unsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/6pack/mharc@autox.team.net From 6pack-bounces@autox.team.net Fri Apr 27 19:19:38 2012 Return-Path: <6pack-bounces@autox.team.net> X-Original-To: mharc@autox.team.net Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from autox.team.net (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id D39612D06AC for ; Fri, 27 Apr 2012 19:19:38 -0600 (MDT) X-Original-To: 6pack@autox.team.net Delivered-To: 6pack@autox.team.net Received: from mail-we0-f169.google.com (mail-we0-f169.google.com [74.125.82.169]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 26E0B2D034B for <6pack@autox.team.net>; Fri, 27 Apr 2012 19:18:42 -0600 (MDT) Received: by werj55 with SMTP id j55so1115301wer.14 for <6pack@autox.team.net>; Fri, 27 Apr 2012 18:19:10 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=20120113; h=mime-version:from:date:message-id:subject:to:content-type :content-transfer-encoding; bh=JEPAR3T6vO7pwAWOHgny8wUULQL1tVKh7/1M4PPMZAw=; b=NBOtz/FfjPW650c0kuZvRgVoCjFBjAo2vaJ+oj6bAvuMM77Yq5vTyOlNHohQ8mxokq /71+7K1/ljJTSULvLnvzle9OMYLoMG0GZnUHV/dDUdtFaubHq8G2FeWuEmAqL3B2kKya 075MP3tef3ZMf/1VbPqb0633rrrt98LD/haWEfNKR293q/QzihW/VErY+2dem2vmMwk8 zBHd3CQF/E74Vwt0vjNpf9/Vgc9XXMbSTOkAL85J0rVMy2PXMBbeFLK/XQkxHh+rG/Ed 7KEacchZhtOije7feT8oRFtA39VjQEgm5XL90VpHad+sqiYbqTgB1vKtNOqcr9QZASsX 19Hw== Received: by 10.216.208.41 with SMTP id p41mr8091107weo.21.1335575949689; Fri, 27 Apr 2012 18:19:09 -0700 (PDT) MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.180.105.9 with HTTP; Fri, 27 Apr 2012 18:18:49 -0700 (PDT) From: John VanNorman Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2012 21:18:49 -0400 Message-ID: To: 6-Pack <6pack@autox.team.net> Subject: [6pack] Rear spring spacer X-BeenThere: 6pack@autox.team.net X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: 6pack TR6 discussions <6pack.autox.team.net> List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: 6pack-bounces@autox.team.net Sender: 6pack-bounces@autox.team.net List, I'm replacing the rear springs on my 74 1/2 TR6. When I took them out I noticed they had the aluminum spacers installed. Should I assume that I need them for the camber to be correct, or should I not install them and see what the camber is like? From what I read I couldn't tell if it was stock or not and wondering if a previous owner installed them to correct camber from sagging springs.

New springs most likely will take care of this. Install the new springs, and if they are as originals, the camber should be correct. Several options if the camber is not to your liking ... try the spacers, or do a mix and match with the trailing arm brackets. Or invest in the Goodparts adjustable brackets.
