hi i agree with dave,most of the p6's over here seem to be laid to rust,ive seen more in yards and fields rusting away. last week i came across 3 rovers within 40miles of my house,all well past there best. i bought a few parts off them,they were a 2200sc,a 2200tc,and a early 2000. there are a...

great to see there is a happy seller,and a happy buyer. do we watch this space for a v8'ed 2000?? jay

aah,dont put a rover v8 in a trummy,leave the sewing machine smooth triumph 6 pot in her rightful place :lol: . just my thrupence worth ther. if you want rover v8,stick with the p6. so you had a pi,ive had a few,the mk1 is the gem to have,150bhp and the classic 60' s jet age look 8) hope...

wow what a great looking p6. hope she gets a good home. ive a 3500s,and ive had my big triumphs before,and i kind of agree of your choice of going back to maybe a 2000/2500s/2.5pi. mite be just me,but the triumphs are a sharper car in general,ride handling,fit and finish. il keep my s,but i...

hi lads think your topic is in the wrong section,this is the v8 engine part of the forum :lol:

rockdemon,think your the wrong end of the table :lol: ,manual box :wink: . yes gear change is nice with the additive. ive been running the box on ep90 for the last few months,so ep90 and the lucas goop have saved the day :D . she did a 170mls round trip today no problems,hot or cold,and...

hi,jason here. I think all my gearbox worrys are over,bought a magic bottle of goo :lol: ,its called "gearbox stop leak" made by a usa company called lucas of all names :lol: . filled box to level,allowing half a litre for the lucas liquid,put the level plug back in,and oil leak not 100percent...

hi lads,was out in p6 most of the day today,long runs at 70mph most of way. :D started at 8am,looked under car,ive cardboard under it,small drip mark,around the size of a 2stg pound coin. checked gear oil level,say its 2/3inch down from filler plug :shock: . but this is the level it leaks to...

hi dave,oddly enough I did what you say there this morning,used Halfords 20/50 oil,put it in,up to level plug and it seemed ok,no leaks etc. went for a long run,motorway stuff,around 70miles. stopped at a petrol station,and saw the oil just gushing out of it,lucky I had more oil in boot,topped...

hi lads,thanks dave,the answer I was looking for. you fill box til it dribbles out filler plug. hi Harvey,ok ep90 not good,i just put it in thinking the rover box took ep90,didnt know about the 20/50 thing :oops: . so should I drain it,or just keep topping it up with 90?? I got a donor car a...

car was level,and I filled it up til it just dripped out the filler plug. so filling it to filler plug is good,yes?? is there any harm running gearbox on ep90?? or is it a big no no? checked level again this morning,cant see the oil near the plug hole :shock: . jay

hi dave,thanks for the info. ok engine oil. do I fill it til it comes out the filler plug?? the plug that can be seen through the hole in transmission tunnel?? let me know if anyone can throw light on it,dont want to be over filling the box :shock: ,and messing up gaskets and seals. jay

ah no karl,you cant use "strangleburgs" on your engine. :shock: im used to them on 6cyl triumphs,and there a pain trying to balance,over fueling,dont like vibration etc. by all means try them but there not the way to go, su is the king/queen/princess of carbs. jay
