Thanks everyone for your replies and images. Much appreciated. I had a long chat with the tech, who basically said that there are some areas where...
To be fair to them, they’ve quoted for the use of OEM parts and said clearly that’s what they recommend. I’ve just raised the question with them...
Thanks carguy. You’re absolutely right, but 1) I don’t have the time or skill and 2) one of the reasons I need new leads is that a couple of the...
My 87 TR is misfiring and, long story short, I’ve been told I need a new set of HT leads, two new distributor caps and two new rotor arms. I’m...
Thank you. I don’t think the clicking speed changes, but I’ll investigate today. This is what it sounds like: [MEDIA]
When I turn the electrics / engine on, I can often hear a dull, offbeat clicking. Sounds a bit like a heavy relay click, but with a short upbeat...
Many thanks. I decided to ask NGK tech support, who said under no circumstances use any lubricant on their plugs. They said the plugs have a...
Sorry if this is answered elsewhere. I’ve been searching but can’t seem to find what I’m looking for. I’m ready to replaced the plugs on my 87 TR...
Many thanks! I will turn my attention to the grounds and report back!
Sorry, I wasn’t very clear. My headlights wink intermittently, but do so much more frequently when the windscreen wipers are operating. So I was...
So… the green light on the tacho stays on. I’ve noticed that if I pull the wiper stalk backwards to initiate the wash cycle, the right headlight...

That’s a great question and the honest answer is I don’t know because I’ve been driving and they “wink” only briefly. I’ll see if I can recreate...
Hi, I’ve discovered one of my white harnesses is broken. Do you still have any available and what’s the cost? I’m UK based.
Hi, I think that right. Mine has a gap at the back between the engine grille and the base of the cover. [ATTACH]
Having received an extremely comprehensive and helpful answer to my first headlight question, I thought I’d chance asking a second. When driving...
Thanks so much - super impressed with your knowledge! You’re absolutely right. I do have the DIM-DIP resistor fitted. Also, I was being a bit dumb...
Big thanks to everyone who contributed. In the end, the car went to a specialist auto alarm technician, who removed the TOAD but found the car...
When I turn my sidelights on (single turn of the stalk) in my 87 UK spec TR, the sidelights illuminate and the headlights pop up, but the...
Did as you suggested, but unfortunately the problem remains. I think I’m going to have to speak to TOAD on Monday. Thanks so much for all your help.
