I was cleaning up and painting my gauges and got to the ammeter and ended up not getting back to it for about 3 weeks. The paper I had the parts laid out on in order was disturbed and I no longer know/remember the order of the various parts on the back of the gauge. Yes I should have taken a picture. Does anyone have a TR4A ammeter gauge that could give me the order of the insulators/nuts etc as they go on the back of the gauge? Bruce





PS TR250/TR6 is not configured the same

My box of small gauges was handy - here are some shots of a TR4A gauge dated 8 65:

UPDATE: I dismantled and the two insulating washers go against the case (small one on first) and the brass shouldered washer fits into the large insulating piece.

Thanks for the pictures. Now I can get this back together correctly. Learning lots of lessons on the assembly/reassembly of this car including just take a picture when doing things like this because "stuff happens". Much appreciated. I usually don't post on both sites but wasn't getting any response on the other site. Bruce
