    TR6 Problem with Clutch on 1976 TR6

    Hello, First I will start by stating that I am not a mechanic but an owner of a TR6 who helped my father care for the car while in High School. Since his passing 2 years ago I had the car delivered to MA where I restored the interior and changed all fluids, plugs, seals. Now the real things...

The car just died out with no warning, and was not running rough or showing any other signs. I checked the fuel and the spark and discovered the fuel was...

Carbs set richer but still same, needs choke to run good. Car is on jack stands currently until I sort this...

    1973 TR6 - My dad's payment for a bad bar debt

    My dad owned a bar in Ohio for most of my life. This bar had been in the family for a long time -- 50 years when he finally closed it down in 2005. My dad was a generous man (sometimes to a fault) and often let people run up pretty big bar tabs. One time in the early 1980s, this torn up red...
