I used this technique on a TR6 that I am working on. Fortunate for me, I had the block out of the car and on an engine stand. After flushing it, I rotated it upside down and you wouldn't believer the additional crud that I got out of it. I kept on flushing and rotating it until it ran clear.

Hi Mark, the glove box looks great. I was hoping if possibleto get a copy of that detailed drawing?

Thanks for the info, guys . I'm trying to do up a pair of 175 cd -1 myself in aussie Holden FB 1960. Mine look exactly like yours with the mechanical chokes. Hopefully, I'll get the same results Cheers again for the great info Cheers, Rob 🍻

La partie métallique du joint vers la culasse ???

Is clr acidic? Does it need neutralising afterwards?

Evapo-rust makes a product specific for cooling systems. The manufacturer of CLR warns not to use CLR on any metals except chrome or stainless steel. CLR does not create a rust protective coating like evaporation-rust, metal blast….. CLR on metal will actually re-start the rust process making it worse.

Hi Thanks for the answer my 93 year old neighbour and pal is currently building one as I am in my garage I will then get the grand kids to build one It will introduce them to soldering and some electronics I have a Mk 11 Jag and and E type I think the faulty ground on the Mk 11 caused the stabilizer to fail I have a new ground strap and a better negative battery lead and the car is now more reliable starting Cheers Mike Mississauga

Hi I am trying to do this but I dont understand som things My units don't have the metalicstrip around the outer perimeter of the inside of the unit so I dont know how to bring things to ground Also what do you mean by the trace on the right side Is that a strip of solder that you placed Thanks Hope you get to see this Mike Mississauga

Did you mention the stress cracks they all have

Hi, Ive just fitted this kit from Moss and was confused by the additional nut and bolt in the kit. The extra part is installed below the metal plate acting as a stop .....to stop the plate turning too far and becomming unclipped....very important.

great ...thankssss.

I’m doing the same thing on my TR3 at the moment. I’m wondering why you didn’t also do an access panel on the opposing side for the valve setting lever. How are you planning on making adjustments?

In German car culture we dislike hylomar in many areas. It can create many problems trough making its way into the inside of whatever is sealed underneath it. I saw a few motors blew up cause oil or water filters got blocked. Then boom 😅 But for the timing belt I don’t see much of a problem as long as you apply it carefully 👍🏽

Fingers crossed the poor 3umph doesn't have to sleep with the fishes! 🤞🐟🐠

Oh my! Brought back memories of changing the clutch on my 1963 TR-4, painful memories. We had 3 people and it took us a lot longer than you to get it aligned! Thanks for showing us the way.

Keeping my fingers crossed! No leaks. Repairs looks great and this is good information for my next transmission job. Thank you. Cheers

I've only had a TR4 transmission out once. And that was ages ago on a parts car. So I don't recall it being all that bad. The transmission on my Datsun 620 pickup on the other hand, took well over 12 hours to change the clutch on. Tight. Nonetheless, it doesn't look like fun. I'll find out on my 72 TR6 I suppose. :)

Nice shoes...

Come on fellas I’m waiting impatiently to see if it leaks. And if it doesn’t you guys are the only ones I know of that there Triumph doesn’t. I’m hoping for the best for you guys.

My TR6 transmission is now acting wonky so I think I’ll be fixing my fork as well. Ugh.

Excellent tips! Thank you

FYI - in the 8 years owning my ‘65 TR4A, the temp gauge always sits around the “3/4” point when warmed up. It’s never moved hotter than that point, even in stop & go traffic.

Is the mast one piece?

Very good job.

What is the sealer name that you used to seal the tranny. No worries I watched the video over again.

Informative thanks guys from another tr4a in socal, and red to boot,cheers.

Nice work! Hope this fixes your leak! Cheers from the 1964 Red TR4 twin in So Cal! 😊

thanks fellas... I will be doing the same soon

Yeah

Would this work for a 65 TR4A? Mine doesn’t have the PCV valve and is just vented with a hose that goes below the engine block near the frame.

Thanks for posting this. It helped me determine I have a bad speedo cable in my TR3.

Use well seal gasket sealer it’s does a excellent job

I'd say that you were a bit too sparing with the Form-a-gasket. Nice to see you guys post again!

Great seeing you guys again. I’m with Dad be generous with the sealer and I think you should be fine. You can also look into sealers from Lucas

Before you reassemble check the solenoid cross shaft seals, mine leak badly.

Which lapping technique did you use, Cosman or Charlesworth ? Great solution

FYI - Elin Yakov (Rusty Beauties) always uses the aviation Permatex on his transmission/overdrive rebuilds

The best sealer I've used is called "The Right Stuff" available at your favorite AP Store. Racers use it. Last Trans rebuild I did is staying very dry. (they all leak some but mine is only wet and very few drops of the cardboard under the car.) It's expensive but so is your time if you have to pull the transmission again.

Could you please send the files for the radiator cowling for the tr4, many thanks

Great seeing you guys again and even got mom helping. Keep them coming

How does it fix onto the dinghy?

Your dad is the BEST! Welcome back, great to see you two working together again... love the T shirt

Nice bench!

Good to see you guys back🎉

Ahhh, There's Big Red.!

Wait, after restoring a machine, new problems can arise? Not fair! But love that videos are returning. 😊

On the machines where I've had weeping through the bolts (or in the case of two stroke engines that can suck air through the intake manifold bolts), I put a dab of Yamabond on the threads before I screw the bolt in and that has always worked well for me. It doesn't take much - a little goes a long way. Good luck with the fix!

I know this is three years ago…but what color is this carpet and where did it come from?

I just did this to my 73 TR6 - worked great!!! Thanks for showing us all how to do it. Figured I would have issues, but it really was a piece of cake to do once you get the channel out of the door......

Annoying music and lag of information. Good thing Dad knows what he is doing..
