SAY HELLO, WAVE GOODBYE

[steve swann]

We have been busy this week getting one of my TP3's a little more reliable. it took several attempt at bleeding the brakes to eventually get a firm pedal. We also had great difficulty findind reverse; but adjusting the rod connections at the front and now its silky smooth again.

It has been a case of "trial and error" to come up with solutions, as there is little information to be found in English.

As I thinkI mentioned before; when I went to take a look at buying ONE TP3, the seller requested that both of his vehicles had to purchased together.

Although I really wanted to keep the later 1977 vehicle; the roof was in a poor state and the engine was completely broken (con rod through the side).

I waved it off to a new owner, who is going to attempt to put a diesel engine of some sort in to it.

I have a new problem now that I have managed to grease all the nipples and fill all the gearboxes and axles and boxes with oil.

The transfer (HI / LO) box rear seal is leaking badly, so I will be asking a seperate question about that soon.

Sorry, still finding it tricky to translate the instructions for posting. I managed to keep the interior seats for my one (swapped from the one I just sold)
