Hughie Hancox spent from 1953 to 1973 at the Triumph Engineering
Company Ltd. Trained and employed as a mechanical fitter,
he has years of first hand experience with Triumph motorcycle
engines.
In this production, Hughie will pass on to you some of the knowledge
and techniques that he has acquired during the last 50 or so years.
This invaluable video follows Hughie through the total strip
and rebuild of a 1970 Triumph TR6 unit construction engine, transmission
and gearbox. It offers an insight as to what to expect once
the covers come off and is presented in a step by step fashion
to help give anyone the confidence to attempt the job themselves.
Although Hughie is shown working on a 1970 TR6 engine, the information
and principles contained in the film can be applied to most Triumph
650cc unit construction engines made between 1963 and 1970.
You will need additional information - tappet clearances, torque
settings etc for your particular model from the relevant workshop
manual.
On Hughie's s first day in the Service Repair Dept in 1953 he
was told by his manager that "there are three ways to do
the job; the right way, the wrong way, and the Triumph way".....
This video is not intended to replace the traditional
workshop manual. Rather, it supplements the manual by demonstrating
the methods and techniques that cannot be effectively conveyed
with the printed word or with still photographs. An appropriate
workshop manual is still recommended to provide the technical
information and specifications relating to your particular model.
