TR2/3/3A TR3 Grease points

[GilsTR]

Several weeks back there was discussion here re finding all the grease points on a TR3. Anyone have the link to that? I seem to remember that by the end of the discussion that there were many more grease points than most of os thought there were. Help here appreciated. Gil

Mornin Gil, I have a Texaco service chart that shows 24 grease points, plus a bunch of other service info. If you pm me with your address I will get it copied at staples (it's a weird size) and send the copy to you.

Cheers, Tinkerman

This might be the same brochure online?

The factory information is in Practical Hints, which IMO every TR3 owner should have. Reprints are available from TRF, or various scans are available on the net.

It's hard to see on the above drwg, but F is arrowed to two grease points - one either side of the clutch shaft, making up the correct total of 24.

Gil: Just think. Next time you bring her in for an oil change and lube job, you'll really get your money's worth. :lol:

I have a mental picture of the lackeys at the local "Spee-Dee-Loob" staring helplessly at the bolt on the cannister oil filter, not to mention the veritable sea of Zerk fittings.... :confuse: :confuse: :confuse: :confuse:

A lot of cars have gone back to that type of filter. My 2003 Mazda 6 has one.

Newer Toyotas have 'em too.

I used to get a kick out of taking my '53 Studebaker Champion in for oil changes. It never came with an oil filter. I used to time the guy to see how long it took him to figure it out/come ask me where it was.

It also has a floor start button, that was also the cause of much laughing.
