Articles

A small sample of some of the articles and information available via the TWOA.
FASD Technical Specifications
Beginning in 1977, US-bound TR7s with carburetors utilized a cold start device known as the Fully Automatic Starting Device, or FASD.  Here are some details on its operation and repair.  

Fuel Injection
Go here if you're curious to know a little more about the Electronic Control Units (ECUs) used in the fuel injected versions of the Wedge.  You can find out what makes an FI-specific gas tank different from the rest.
Member Only Articles
The links on this page will take you to some additional samples of information the TWOA makes available to its members.  If you're not a member, then hopefully the titles shown here will tempt you to join.

TR8 Cooling Fan Circuit
If your TR8 has its air conditioning system intact, you may wonder what triggers the electric cooling fans to turn on or off.  Here are some details on their operation.
