The Triumph 2000/2500/2.5 Register Forum

I do not qualify for a single owner. My car has only had 2 owners, me and another person. Which means my car has shared two owners over 43+ years.

I had a simular thing. It was not just one thing it was several. a.) Accelerator pedal not going down far enough because of the thick carpeting, b.) Measured the fuel pressure going to the carbs (somewhat down) i.e Not enough fuel. Cleaned everything changed the filters etc. c.) checked the timing t...

Mike I think you are correct.

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.

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

That sounds good. I hate taking the G/B off or dropping it down. Or even worse taking the O/D off on your own.

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...
