Club Triumph

Today I fitted the carburettors to my TR7 DHC for the third time in a few weeks time

The DHC's fuel system keeps fighting me

New fuel pumps have been a right pain for me up to 2 years ago. Either too much pressure or not enough. when I fitted an electric pump all my troubles disappeared and I could tune it correctly.

That's far to easy  and will have to wait till I fit the PI system to the car that I have lying around!

The DHC has been in my ownership for exactly 30 years today!

Slowly getting the fuel supply for the DHC sorted, since today she's driveable again

Found the final carburettor problem, I knew it had to be something simple

Enjoying the fine autumn weather, or almost €175,- worth of fun spent on fuel!

How time flies, as it is already 10 years ago yesterday that I started the restoration of this car.

Finally decided what to do with the DHC's (front) brake repairs

Didn't go to plan with the new brakes today, but at least done some work on the DHC 

1976 TR7 FHC (currently undergoing some TLC ...)
1980 TR7 DHC (a.k.a. Kermette, my first car bought in 1988 )
1981 TR7 FHC (Sprint engined, a.k.a. 't Kreng)

The brakes are now fully sorted (just need bleeding). So the first of the jobs in preparation for the 10CR can be deleted from the to-do-list

Slowly getting the car ready for the road, or various small jobs, including bleeding, done

Started a long postponed job in preparation for this year's 10 Countries Run: fitting the loading and mounting dock for the GPS device

Hi Theo, hope you don't mind me asking an off-topic question: I see you're running a Bosch Blue coil. I'm likely going to be trying one this weekend. Any thoughts on the reported varying quality of Mexican, Spanish and NOS German units?

Also, I've not seen a rubber coil cap like that before, was that a standard part on TR7s or have you sourced it since?

Cheers!

I always buy them from reputable suppliers. And if they pass their (Bosch) quality control, that's fine for me!

The cover for the coil came with the Magnecore leads for my TR7 DHC.
