I'm going to stick my nose in here to clarify something. I own the black TR in Mindemoya that Matt is coming to see. For the record, the...
I can't pull the seat belt out of the driver's side reel. It will come out about an inch and then stop. And the cover over the mechanism is...
After long deliberation I have decided to sell my 1988.5 TR and need to do some repairs before putting it up for sale. It still has its original...
Melvok, thanks for the tip. The fuse panel and white connectors are all fine. I installed Dave Helm's fuse panel upgrade last year and fixed the...
I checked the service records and see no evidence that the fuel filters have ever been changed. The car did have the major service at 21,000 miles...
Joe, it is disconcerting when you get in the car and wonder if it is going to start. But I am convinced the problem is spark, not fuel, because...
Joe, it doesn't seem to matter whether the engine is hot or cold. There is no pattern that I can discern.
Sometimes my TR fires right up. Other times, it will turn over and over but only cough a couple of times. Then I hit the key again and it starts....
I love animals. Really. But the portly, suicidal raccoon that popped out of the ditch in front of me last fall, not so much. I hit him at about...
Jcorallo, did you ever sort out your turn signal problem? My car is doing exactly the same thing, only in reverse - it's the right side indicator...
The left fuel tank on my '88 TR is leaking around the inboard strap. Is the tank aluminum or steel? Can't tell from the manual. Anyone taken one...
Just a follow-up message to all who so kindly responded to my fusebox problem. I'm happy to report that all is well. I shipped off my fuse panel...
Thanks, Mr. Chairman, for your concern and advice. I will see how busy Dave is and take it from there. Dave
Thanks one and all for your recommendations. I yanked the remaining white connectors and am not yet in serious trouble with other circuits. Fuel...
Yup. Fried to a crisp. Both pin 2, right side, and pin 5, left side cooling fan. The K connector is fine. I looked around but did not find a...
The right side cooling fan has quit in my '88 TR. Left hand side comes on and stays on when it should. Checked the fuse panel and there are no...
Frames two and five are mine. No offense taken. And fun to drive. Just came back from a lapping day at Shannonville, just east of Belleville,...
Tubopanzer, I confess to being a bit of a Luddited when it comes to brake bleeding. I have seen people using both vacuum and pressure devices...
Steve, Nice to hear from you again. I guess I need to clean up the problem description. What appears to have changed is the ineffective pedal...
After sitting for the winter, my '88 TR's right front caliper seized up and demanded a rebuild. Reinstalled it and bled the system with no...
