Re: [Spits] GT6 Radiator Caps
On the subject of heat in the cockpit, check the firewall to insure "all" grommets are in place and the correct size, the biggest problem with 1500 is the engine/tranny cover, if you cover this with heat reduction material the temp inside will drop 20 degrees, the cover is a economy based material and rots easily, "Home-Depot" took care of this for me for less than $20.00, BTW, I purchased my car from a school teacher several years ago because of a heated compartment, only had about 6 hugh holes in the cover and several grommets missing, I bought it cheap back then, great car if this problem is corrected.

Doug, sorry but there was then and still is today a lots more Model A Ford's than Triumphs and that also includes parts available, if any hobbiest were to ever start thinking about how much to restore and then how much is it worth, we would have no restored cars on the road, a auto is restored for the love of the hobby or a memorable time in your life about that type car, they're a lots prettier in any condition on the road than after a crusher hugs them.

[Spits] winter time
Easy way to check for radiator corrosion protection, just as important as checking the antifreeze, if the coolant is allowed to become "acidic" the engine and radiator will also become corroded with rust. Using a volt-ohm meter (VOM) set it to a DC voltage range that measure in "tenths" of a volt, remove the cap and place the negative VOM lead into coolant, being very careful not to touch any other part of the radiator. Place the Positive lead of the VOM against a bare metal part of the radiator (or a good ground of the engine), a reading of 0.2 volts or less, coolant is in good shape, a reading of 0.5 volts it is borderline, 0.7 volts replace your coolant immediatly. This comes from my "Model A" workshop manual and also says it works in modern cars as well, which is really more important because of aluminum heads or dissimilar metals in modern cars. ___ Support Team.Net http://www.team.net/donate.html Spitfires@autox.team.net http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo/spitfires http://www.team.net/archive

NO LBC==NO LBC==NO LBC ==Happy Marriage == Humnour
Secret to a Happy Marriage A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary on the beach in Montego Bay, Jamaica . Their domestic tranquility had long been the talk of the town. "What a peaceful & loving couple". A local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage. Well, it dates back to our honeymoon in America ," explained the man. "We visited the Grand Canyon in Arizona and took a trip down to the bottom of the canyon by horse. We hadn't gone too far when my wife's horse stumbled and she almost fell off. My wife looked down at the horse and quietly said, "That's once." We proceeded a little further and the horse stumbled again, this time causing her to drop her water. Once more my wife quietly said, "That's twice. " We hadn't gone a half-mile when the horse stumbled for a third time. My wife quietly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the horse dead. I shouted at her, "What's wrong with you, Woman! Why did you shoot the poor animal like that? Are you crazy??" She looked at me, and quietly said, "That's once." "And from that moment we have lived happily ever after." *** http://www.team.net/the-local*** Your messages not reaching the list?

detailing
For under hood/chassis and frame I use "Simple Green (diluted 3/1) and my pressure washer, I remove all 4 wheels and go to work. For the paint you must rinse under high pressure (pressure washer is O/K) very throughly 3 to 4 times to remove all dirt, then a wool mitten with a good auto washing liquid, do this a section at a time ( hood, one fender, one door) and rinse good, "DO-NOT" use a chamosis, wash the car dry, remove the hose end and turn the water pressure down and run the end over the surface washing the water away, (it works trust me) Use a good "Clay-Bar" and Maguires "Quick-Detailer" to remove all old wax and hidden/buried contaminents, do this one section at a time, 1/2 hood, one fender, one door, etc etc I like "Klasse" cleaner and then "Klasse" High Gloss Sealant Glaze" www.properautocare.com, this product is amazing with the ease of applying and removing, I use only "Micro-Fiber" applicators and towels, these are available from "QVC" and other sites on the net, very inexpensive for the results. My experience with waxes are as follows # 1- Klasse High Gloss # 2- Auto Glym Super Resin Polish & Auto Glym Extra Gloss Protection # 3- Maguires # 7 Show Car Glaze Interiorood then use any of the spray cans of carpet cleaner foam and again vacumn dry, "Lexoyl conditioner" on the seats doors panels and dash, then Lexoyl preserver on same NEVER use "Armor-All" as this dries out the oils in the material and leads to cracking and quick deteration of the interior Tires brush wash and Maguires tire black , white walls I like Westley's WSW cleaner(don't forget the backside of the tires) Door jams "Maguires Quick Detailer" White top a mixture of warm water/Ajax/clorox, use a wooden floor brush and rinse as you go Chrome= PPG # 579 metal cleaner diluted 5 to 1, spray on and keep it wet for about 2 minutes, rinse and then use windex and Maguires Polish. This is a once a year chore, the rest of the year just wash and use quick detailer where needed (trailer Queens once every 5 years) Now you are ready for a nice neighborhood ride to be very proud of *** http://www.team.net/the-local*** Your messages not reaching the list?

Fw: Lucas jokes for a happy New Year
Thanks Susan K. * The Lucas motto: "Get home before dark." * "And the Lord said 'let there be light'...Joseph Lucas replied 'no way, Lord, no way'." * Lucas denies having invented darkness. But they still claim "sudden, unexpected darkness". * Lucas--inventor of the first intermittent wiper. * Lucas--inventor of the self-dimming headlamp. * The three-position Lucas switch--DIM, FLICKER and OFF. The other three switch settings--SMOKE, SMOLDER and IGNITE. * The original anti-theft devices--Lucas Electric products. * "I've had a Lucas pacemaker for years and have never experienced any prob..." * If Lucas made guns, wars would not start either. * Did you hear about the Lucas powered torpedo? It sank. * It's not true that Lucas, in 1947, tried to get Parliament to repeal Ohm's Law. They withdrew their efforts when they met too much resistance. * Did you hear the one about the guy that peeked into a Land Rover and asked the owner "How can you tell one switch from another at night, since they all look the same?" "He replied, it doesn't matter which one you use, nothing happens!" * Back in the '70s Lucas decided to diversify its product line and began manufacturing vacuum cleaners. It was the only product they offered which didn't suck. * Quality Assurance phoned and advised the Engineering guy that they had trouble with his design shorting out. So he made the wires longer. * Why do the English drink warm beer? Lucas made the refrigerators, too. * Alexander Graham Bell invented the Telephone. Thomas Edison invented the Light Bulb. Joseph Lucas invented the Short Circuit. * Recommended procedure before taking on a repair of Lucas equipment: check the position of the stars, kill a chicken and walk three times clockwise around your car chanting: "Oh mighty Prince of Darkness protect your unworthy servant." * Lucas systems actually uses AC current; it just has a random frequency. * Lucas is an acronym for Loose Unsoldered Connections and Splices. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

convention
The very best convention I have ever attended, every detail was taken care of and some I could not even think of were already covered in their plans, just a wonderful time was had by all. A 12,000 mile 59 TR3A took best of show and it was well deserved, just a perfect car in everyway. Only one very bad incident and that was the Friday night "auction", seems the RTR host floor attendants handling the parts were also running up the bids and then stopping their bidding after they had inflated the price, no doubts in any one minds that were standing in the back watching these dirty little thieves/crooks steal VTR members monies and stealing is exactly what they did, it is a real shame that these 4 RTR members decided to ruin what had been a perfectly convention, no host club should ever need money this bad to resort to stealing from VTR members.

Re: sLOW sPIT
In defense of the Spit, I think the driver is looking for another car, so any thought of problem (excuse) might help ease the argument with "her" :) :) :) "FT" *** http://www.team.net/the-local*** Your messages not reaching the list?

Re: crazy oil pressure
I think we talked at Carlisle about Castrol doing this on the oil pressure relief valve, I know it does on the 4 cyc. spin on adapters, BTDT too many times with the exact same results.
