Had a metallic black 1982 244 GLT in Canada... BRILLIANT ride, leather, sunroof, (same) alloy rims, 5 speed manual and sporty handling... with the 2.3 L FI engine and Euro headlights (rare in Canada). Had to let it go many many years ago, but longing to have it back now for the nostalgia.

Short video, all i wanted to know though. thanks

Fer Q invented drill!?

Ouch!!! You will be in my prayers, please keep us updated.

That was a video with a bummer ending......there are just not enough swear words to describe your pain......:( Hope you get it repaired......best wishes.

Did the 5mm shorter work out?

ITS OFFICIAL THAT ALL MASERATIS ARE JUST SIMPLY UNRELIABLE PIECES OF SH*T

Great video a great help

Thanks for these videos! I've already done this job, but watching you find the same problems as me was interesting. I had a cushion on top of the engine too! The supercharger is heavy all right. Did you ever find the thread on the forum "Into the valley we ride" ? It was a real help to me.

Man, you made a meal of the centre secondary bulkhead. In the book, it tells you to remove the intake duct to the throttle body, which is the big alloy bit in the middle. One worm clip around the throttle body. Then remove the two heater pipes from the bulkhead on the passenger side. That allows room for the bulkhead to twist up and out. You really need one of those remote spring hose clip tools. I guess you got there, but I was stuck just like you, and ended up breaking the plastic Y-connectors for the rear air con heater on the driver's side of the firewall.

Hi Mike. With the manual, you can use the section numbers e.g. 18.30.92 in the search bar for the pdf. You just have to keep clicking on 'next' until you get past all the cross-references to it and reach the section itself. I then work out the start and end pages and just print that section. I feel for you, as I've done that job on the valley hoses myself!

Looks like the fix is pretty dry......pretty cool song at the end.....a little trip in the Jag to see friends is a powerful thing.....:) Keep up the good work.

Excellent video, I really appreciate your efforts.I don't want to wish any trouble upon you, but I kind of hope you need to do a lot more work, so I can learn through you! I'm in Canada and own a normally aspirated 2005 Vanden Plas, I expect to be back here often! Cheers

Wow that is just pure bad luck for that guy, I've never personally witnessed this in my life. Must be pretty rare. Glad he was ok

I have watched all three of these videos with great interest as I have been recently told by a "Jag" mechanic he would not work on XJR's because of having to remove the supercharger. I thought he was being a bit brash about it but after watching all the work you went through just to get to the last few bolts to get it off I can see why it is such an intimidating task. I must say you are a very brave soul to tackle that job, I have that same PDF manual and it is a beast to navigate in any sensible manner. I have a 2004 XJR that runs fine at the moment with only 126,000 miles on it but at some point......I'm sure there will be a time for it to come off for one reason or another. Thank you for making the video, it was very enlightening and educational for me to know what to expect should that day ever come. Don't get discouraged by the "armchair experts" out there being snooty about your methods, there are many out there and seem to have a great need to take the time to tell others how smart they are. I'm sure you have helped many more than you know with the video.

its my friends car, I think its still showing the code but runs without fault. I think it was something to do with the alternator.

Was there any particular cause?

Right color, right specs. Congrats!

Thank you for the content! Don’t worry about the sound, I dare to say it’s excellent. Even I managed to hear loud and clear your relieving fart at 9:43 😅. For sure this video will save me some time if I decide to overhaul the supercharger of my X350. Cheers from Spain 🇪🇸.

Have you still got the Bedford cf Mike

Excellent video, thank you Mike. I am certain I would not have been able to successfully replace the heater matrix on my non-AC 940 without this. I agree with you that the large white box needs to be removed,

Thats a cracker. Looking forward to see how you get on.

He’s not an idiot he’s a selfish piece of shit because he knows what he’s doing.

Check the UNFUSED Battery + wires packed under the drivers side dash. They are pinched by the knee bolster. Fire hazard.

Ahh that was Kevin at the factory... He had Wanker Wednesday on the production line, he'd put a bolt in backwards to annoy one poor random mechanic 20 years in the future.

Awesome music too!

Damn. And I was so affraid of driving my 940 with its last timing belt done in 2014. Bought it on april 2023 and changed the belt last april.

Thanks Mike for this vid, these Honda drive belts area bit of a pickle to fit

I have 1 of these 🙂 it was dumped outside in a hedge. It cost me nothing. I got it going and now use it regularly 🙂 Mine is a 1989 model. It cuts grass up to 3 foot lol

Awsome 👌😍

What the heck is that?????

I’ll be honest, I had no idea what size this was until your hand came into view to give the shocks a bounce around the 1 minute mark. It looks great!

this is aethreal

Thanks! You saved my day. I couldn't figure out how to remove the valve and I couldn't find it online. No chainsaw needed, turn it clockwise (bajonet). 👍 740, 1989, non-ac.

The lyrics speak to me.

Dame, last week bought a 740 master II, timimg belt change in 2001 with 149k, now 460kms

Very nice!

That sounds lovely mate, beautiful build. Have you still got it? We acquired a 2.0cih powered cf2 last year. Bit of a rust bucket but we're getting there

Wow never knew these had opel cih engines 😊

This looks like a clever way to repair the resistor pack! How do you know what temperature fuse to take?

Une bonne base pour faire la nouvelle motorisation d'un véhicule ancien 👍

Héllo Mike c'est pour un futur projet ?👍

Enjoyed your engine swap series. Has the volvo conversion changed the MPGs much?

the car was recovered back to his home address, a few dats later it started again.

Flood is good Hydro locked is like opposite

What a dick move

Of course van drivers. They always find a way to be worst human being

Wonderful car that just go up in prize every year🎉 Greetings from Sweden 👍

B230F in a GLT? That's the first that I've seen, usually they're K-jet B230E's
