You can always fit a sleeve, this restricts the water flow, i use them in both of the cars. -
You can never spend too much money on a Triumph )

Here's mine took a lot of fettling to get it right. RR

Just buy new ones, they are not that expensive. RR

Don't like 4 spokes, they just look wrong.

If you have a set of jump leads use one half of them for an earth wire, it will rule that one out, then it's probably the starter or solenoid.

Maybe, but its the same as the one on the Sprite ok on that but i found with a fresh engine the starter struggled especially when your trying to set up the dizzy/ carbs.

Basically just filled it up with water, 2/3 cups of daz washing powder, anode dangling in tank connected up to a car battery charger. All rust attracted to the anode away from the tank itself. Left it sparking clean. I then promptly filled it with distilled water to clean out further, then topped up with petrol to stop it rusting. Done the same, good results. RR
