Wedge Must Be Winter

Perspective, Scot...Perspective

Sorry Don, but I have always loved winter. Even though I am always itching to get the TR3 out in the by the time spring rolls around....I still enjoy every season here in New England
 
Anyone know the official name of that color and the years it was used?
Maple? Or as I called it, British Racing Brown.
 
You guys are breaking my heart. It's just getting to be good driving weather here! Topped 85 today, but with a little bit of breeze. Same thing tomorrow. They say we might get a tiny bit of rain next week (and a high of 67), but I don't believe it.

Found part of the reason my TR3 doesn't want to idle smoothly. All four of the Bosch Platinum plugs are apparently broken inside the ceramic, but the only symptom is that the center electrode was sticking out of the ceramic. One plug was almost (but not quite) closed completely; the actual gap had to be under .010"! Put in a set of Champion conventional plugs and it's much happier.


Randall, What do you think caused those Bosch plugs to break like that?
