The Triumph 2000/2500/2.5 Register Forum

I have just come back from the garage 3 1/2 hours trying to put 4 electrical connecters in place. I did drop the G/B down a bit it helped a lot. I got the new looms in place using a TR6 J type logic. The colours and everything are the same. Charles just as you said the sound deadening was the cause ...

Have just come back from my garage. I have just in case renewed the gear lever cables. The old cables just go to some squash type connectors (definately not Triumph bits) under the body work. Even with a mirror I have no idea where they are going. Reverse lights OK. So it looks as though I will have...

I don't quite get that one. I can see checking the switch cables. The brown lead goes to earth and the black lead has 12V permanent. So if I pull out the grommet I presume I can get at the leads coming up from the G/B but what is that going to tell me? I do not know what is going where. I need to kn...

Charles as I suspected, you have just confirmed that the junction is under the metal body work after the grommit. If I pull out the grommit is there enough wire to get at the bullet connector or whatever.

I took the trim panel off but I could not see the end of the cable only painted metal.

This problem has been around since the Scotland National. Oil has been checked. I have reserve cables from Rimmers but the horror is dropping th G/B down. Therefore I am hoping there is some way of doing it without dropping the G/B. I know the A type vewry well and over the years I have had it out a...

great I have heard about this in the past but how do I measure this without dropping the G/B down?

My O/D has been playing about. Stage 1 Erverything OK Stage 2 O/D dropping out at some time. Stage 3 O/D dropping out when the engine/G/B gets warm Stage $ Has completely stopped. No clicking noise from the solonoid. According to God (Mike Papworth) it is electrical. I put the car up on the ramp saw...

I had no problems in gettingh 30 + Important is not the PI bits it is everthing else. Good battery. Throttle valves working correctly. The ignition a 100%. Good earthing. Good compression. All these things indirectly change the vacuum values. This means that the Metering unit and pump will not work ...
