Is there a way to flush out the oil lines?
Is there a way to get all the gunk out of the lines? I'm not positive that there will be any buildup but I was wondering if they were easy to flush out.
And do we have any sort of catch can on these things?

Re: WTH are you talking about?
Nothing builds up in that line?
Uh, I need to get behind this engine... this car is nothing like my TR6...
I need a mentor... this is completely sad.

you'll find that engine technology has come a long way in 30 yrs! :)
pardon me for LOL!
BTW, I've always liked TR6's. They evoke some of the same emotions when I see a clean one that the TT does.

30? Try 60...
MG and Triumph never got much beyond WW2 technology, even in their later cars. I will give them credit for eventually adopting hydraulic shocks, though.
I had a Spitfire for a thankfully short time.

Wow, you have angered Master Schwing! lol. You are in the right place.
And have a beautiful car, btw. Read all you want here, more info than you can ever read. Using some good synthetic oil (Mobil 1 0w40 perhaps? will keep things flowing well (as will driving the car hard). This *is* the howTThingswork site.

Thanks so much guys!
I'm not afraid to feel like an idiot here!
I'm using the right oil so I should be good, I drive her pretty hard every once in a while but the clutch is being dumb, so i need to get that replaced.
I'm flipped over 40k so I'm going to get some new plugs... any tips guys?
