Suspension my 1975 Triumph Spitfire 1500 leans to the drivers side (left)Measuring from the gound to the top of the fender wall all most 1 inch differance from side to side. I have replaced all the bushings plus the single eliptical leaf spring but the lean is still there. Now what?

Hi Brian:
Gotta love old Triumph cars and lucas wiring! Well, maybe love the car and hate the wiring.
I've got a '73 GT6 MkIII to restore when I decide to retire, and I did a GT-6 a few years back.
If I'm remembering correctly, the speedometer has a manual drive off the transmission so the only electrical wire to the speedometer would be for the light. Makes sense since there are separate lights for each gauge.
Please reply as a COMMENT to this post.
Cheerfuls.

Start with removing all the trim on that render, the grill, the front bumper and the headlight trim etc. Remove the Front tire then locate and remove the screws holding the fender in place (see digragm/pic)

sounds like the diff is at fault

Firewall drivers side of engine compartment A weak point in a spit to say the least. Each of the legs on the fuse holder is a separate circuit. If you test the top leg it does not mean that the leg on the bottom is working. 1 fuse for two circuit will make you crazy if you do not know that detail.

Could be a number of issues. Obvious ones are location of the fuel feed line to the carburetor. Make sure the line is away from the back of the cylinder head. Second one is that the gas cap rubber gasket is plugged. Pop the gas cap when the car dies and if you hear a rush of air, your cap is not venting. Try starting again. There can also be issues with your hose routing to the charcoal canisters on USA vehicles.

easy... remove the mechanical tach and fit the light from the old one to the new eletric tach. Next run a wire from the back of the tach connection that looks like a small pole and run that to your ignition coil - negative side. Also make sure the ground wire (black) is mounted to one of the install bracket posts that hold the tach in place behind the dash.

Hi, do you know if it is a single rail or 3 rail box? The single rail has the gearlever coming out of the tail housing ( and the reverse spring below the lever on the l/h/side sometimes replaced by the reverse light switch) the 3 rail box has an extension housing holding the gear lever, bolted on with 4 studs to the gearbox. this has a detent on the gearbox top plate.

10 to 50 SAE is ok
