My RUINED Jaguar F-Type Engine Should NOT Have Been This EASY To Separate

- The engine in my cheap 2014 Jaguar F-Type S is toast. After inspection I found tons of coolant leaking into the number 5 cylinder and the leakdown test confirmed it by turning the overflow tank into a bubble bath. Now we need to get the engine out and my plans to pull it out the top were foiled by some insane fastener placement and the torque converter bolts. Instead of borrowing the @realcarninja's engine lift table that costs more than most cars, I'm going to pick up the Harbor Freight table and see if we can make it happen.

New camera girl 😁
There’s a replacement gf there huh lol
Either that or he recruited the Uber eats driver to hold the camera
Regular maintenance in most of the cars: alternator rebuild.
Jag's manual:
1st step: loosen the exhaust tailpipe
2nd: remove the front passenger headlight bulb and headliner
Toyota:
1. Check electric current
2. Wash your hand
3. Done
*Rebuilding an alternator is not regular maintenance.
You gotta love that nice little "SNIK" when the exhaust manifold bolt breaks free.
Dude! You should get a induction heater. Amazing for stuck nuts and bolts
How you remember where all those parts go back where they belong amazes me, can't wait to see it go back together 👍.
If you have it on video you can replay it and hopefully see. but yes I would have lost most of the bolts after five minutes
That's why he makes the videos, it's just a bonus for us..
Since it's a Ford, there should be a Chilton's manual!
@@TheBibliofilus I've seriously considered making videos of my stuff for this exact reason
If you think about it... it's really not that hard. Once you've done it a few times, you start not exactly to remember but to know what kind of bolts go on each place. Remembering or knowing quantity of bolts for each part usually helps s lot. But there's also a rule that fit every job...if all the bolts are different sizes and shapes for example, one won't fit where other one goes in. So... basically if you are just a little bit neat and tidy, you can separate all the bolts before starting the reassembly and you'll end up recognising them as you progress in your work.
Same idea goes for bolts, parts, supports, connectors...at least for me.
So is nobody going to mention the helper? The camera person? Lol. Does JR have a friend he doesn’t show on camera? Great work separating that by yourself.
One of his better looking helpers.
At about 9:40 min she appears.
@@jeffmac3071 u mean at 9:00 😂
@@nissan911 yes, about, not exact. Thx
@@jeffmac3071 your welcome 👍
Nice little Bob Ross reference 😉
love the channel, you never seem intimidated by any project. really impressive how you just work through each one step by step. Makes me wonder how fast you could assemble a kit Cobra. be fun to watch a total ground up build
What is this scam about
Who's the new girl? Can't remember the last time I saw one on your channel. 🤔🤔
I wish my brain worked like yours the confidence its gotta take to jump into a project like this one I hope you get to enjoy this one a little bit unlike the r8
You are a better man than I am. When I hear "Jaguar" I'd be like, ah hell no! Good TH-cam content though! It will be cool to see it back on the road! Just crazy to see all that rust on a 2014! Love all your videos!
I’ve pulled cars out of ditches with 1” ratchet straps, the weakest part is the ratchet… Great job! Can’t wait to see it back together!!
Glad to see this project coming along! It's a real shame that a lot of Jags get left by the wayside, and this one is definitely a good candidate to be brought back to life. I hope it works out in the end!
You just make it look too easy. Your videos motivated me to work on my cars way more. Thanx.
Those exhaust manifold fasteners are Ribe bits, they're common on Voith gearbox solenoids & Vauxhall sump plugs on certain model years.
Ratchet straps work for many thing's, lifting engine's included, used them a couple month's ago. I find it better than trying to find places to bolt on lifting hooks for an 08 mercury milan that i pulled through the top after removing the whole front end and cowl.
I am glad I only rebuilt an MGB engine. Amazing sophistication in these new engines and components. Beautiful car. great you are saving it..
E39 540i had those same style heat exchanger for the trans cooler. I had some overheating issues with my transmission and thought the trans was going bad. Turned out the previous owner had dumped some cooling system leak sealer in the radiator and it completely blocked off that exchanger. That's the single biggest problem with these older luxury cars.......they become affordable to people who cannot afford to maintain them.
John who was the girl huh lol
It's so crazy to keep seeing my old Z06 in the background of your shop. I had the same car (mine didn't have the mod red interior either) only it was an '03 with the silver 50th anniversary crossed flag emblems.
I took off my body side moldings when I bought it because I hated the look. I still have them in the basement if you want a spare set. ;)
I went the NA route because I took it to road courses and didn't want to deal with heat issues. I had LT headers and a head and cam package it was good for 450 rwhp and 43o rwtq.
I put a Mallett shifter on it. I hated the stock long throw tractor shifter and didn't care for the super stiff B&M or Hurst. The Mallett was the best compromise IMO though it was rather pricey. The later mod after the C6's came out was using the C6 shifter in the C5.
I also had goodies so I could drive it all day at Road America like a Rin Davis radiator along with trans and diff coolers. I ran brake ducts and spindles to complete the job the GM engineers started.
I thought I had a good memory when I was your age, but putting that thing back together would have severely taxed me. Great job and looking forward to the next instalment.
But back then did you film the whole disassembling process with 4k cameras?
@@ssenssel This is true, but imagine re-playing the vid to find the bit you'd forgotten 🙂
@@dontuno Yeah, you right.. but this is his job 🤷♂
Tag and bag. Take a lot of pictures.
C'mon... Tom Petty said the waiting is the hardest part. But but but
I've never heard it before, I'm coining the phrase "engine foreplay", inspired by the way you left us hanging there ready to see more than separating a transmission and an engine.
Oh man, I remember my 69 Dodge slant 6 engined pickup, sat on the fender wells and performed all my maintenance in comfort with plenty of space, legs resting on the frame rails!😝😝
man JR is making use of that huge shop. i remember the videos where they worked on it and fixed it up. its came a long way man congrats lol
Or changing an engine in a twin turbo R8 in a small home garage now he has a shop we all can drool over and dream about
@@george_cramer_1980 that too bro its been a long time lol
Looks good, glad to hear you’ve got a new one coming, that will make it simple.👍😎
epic video. love these projects. You make it look relatively easy, but I know it isn't
Tear down the motor JR,
let's see what failed. 👨🔧
i was wondering why wasting time removing the transmission when I thought the goal was to get the heads off to see what's wrong. then at the end you finally reveal what's going on... ok, but I still want to see what's wrong with that motor, maybe you don't need a new one ;-)
Look at a torx plus tp50, slightly larger than a standard t50, that may be what is used on the manifolds.
Definitely one of those engines that's very easy to work on...after you take it out.
New camera person.......new GF? Well done sir to find a lady who will support what you do.
Lol thanks for the quick note at the end - I had been sat scratching my head about... Why is he taking the engine off the transmission, when it's just the heads that are going to come off?!
Once again, you amazed me by doing that work all by yourself.
Looked like you had a new camera person there at the 9 minute mark. Did a good job. What happened to the other guy? Just curious. Enjoyed the video and the look at something I haven't had the Nightmare to do. lol
Ratchet straps for lifting engines etc are fine back in the day we used old fan belts never dropped or slipped once
Will we see any mods to the engine?
Ex: Exhaust, intake, etc, etc.
R & R elbows deep... your passion is contagious!
Those torx on the manifolds are torxs plus, similar size but the ends are more rounded
I scrolled through the credits just so I could find out tge exhaust bolts were.
Another great video from JR. Thanks
JR, this is an awesome series.
Even though you have little bits and pieces that say FoMoCo, the actual ENGINE is still a Jaguar unit. Heck, those accessories aren't even made by FoMoCo but companies like Denso, Nissens, Mahle Behr, Bosch, etc who are the actual OEM suppliers.
Exhaust bolts are a ribe socket not a torx
The Jaguar AJ-V6 engine is based on the Ford Duratec V6 engine. One notable addition is the use of variable valve timing, a feature also shared with Mazda's version of the engine.
wow that's a lot of parts to put back together .... good luck great video
It makes more sense to just change the engine sure changing the head gasket might work but you don't know how bad it is unless it overheated when you drove it and you shut it right off and didn't try to start it again that might work
I have the 500 pound lift table from HF. It is easily the best thing I have ever bought from there.
I didn't know the Jaguar was powered by Dr. Pepper, but it makes sense.
Love the videos JR!!
Thanks now I know why it cost a arm and a leg to replace one of these motors!
JR, great job! For being a singer, you are a great mechanic!
Wow, I sure don't envy the Jag techs who have to service these cars. What a nightmare.
If torx doesn't fit it right it's probably a torx+ fastener torx plus looks really close to regular torx but has more material in the points of the ⭐ for strength.
Must of missed the part when he decided to buy a whole new motor, thought we were going to see the heads come off 😩.
Who is the new camera girl ?
Has no one bought the black corvette yet? How much are you asking for it? Can't remember what you said. Definitely interested. 👍
I use Orange harbor freight 1" straps on everything. My loads always look like a spider's web. Never failed me yet.
the manifold bolts might torxplus regular torx will fit them but loosely. Lisle shows them others too.
I recently bought a 2016 3.0 F-Type with manual transmission with 30,000 miles, It doesn't look as if it's ever seen salt. Looking at this engine is the stuff of nightmares. My car is currently dead, the battery died and doesn't seem to want to take enough of a charge to allow me to open the trunk. Yay.... Pretty car though.
I am a bit surprised you knelt down to do all that work when your new super cool table could have brought the whole unit up to waist level. perhaps for assembly?
Gotta love it when the ting (aka the impact) goes skrrrra, pap pap pap pap pa
Great progress!!
Nice product placement good morning from the UK
Whoa that was a lot of work, you zipped through that like it was nothing!
I am wondering which company build stroker kit (crankshaft-connecting rods-piston) cam shaft and valve and high pressure oil Pump and super charger upgrade , all I found is For Jaguar F-Type V6 / V6 S
Performance kit consisting of a software remapping combined with a set of sport air filters and a modified supercharger pulley and pulley crank for increased boost. Remapping includes the optimization of various engine maps, increase of boost, the adaptation of the gearbox software and optimized power delivery throughout the entire power band. Couldn’t find long headers the original manifold can’t handle the high pressure out of the piston chamber
I remember when I was young and fearless and I'd tear into anything.... OK, I still do it but I'm old so it takes me longer. I usually avoid the European stuff just because it's a PITA though!
Not sure if you noticed but the exhaust studs are opposite each other. One stays in one comes out.
I see the safety latch on the load hook of the engine hoist was not up to the task of handling the lateral load from the ratchet strap hooks 😂
Man, you're crushing this job.
Can you imagine how much it will cost to swap out the alternator, ac compressor or water pump when they fail ? You probably can not get to them with the engine in the car.
Outstanding job as always
You are a One Man Band
Did you not see the lady friend?

Will there be any of the "While I'm In Here" work to do be done?
So u went down on the belt nice!!
It was a T55 Plus. Ford uses them on their seat mounting bolts...
John Ross going Bob Ross for the win 🎉👍
Exhaust manifold bolts are Ribe fittings
Hi JR may we ask Who was the first time guest Assistant Who appeared today in your vlog
Maybe the exhaust manifold bolts are the British equivalent size, whatever they call that? It isn't popping right out of my brain at the moment but you should probably get the correct wrench whatever that size might be before you have to install the manifolds back. You definitely don't want to drop the engine again because your manifolds are leaking.
*shudder* the thought of Whitworth anything, if that’s what we’re thinking of, being used in the 21st century gives me the screaming heebie jeebies.
That's one one big headache. But you got it done
3:48 Metric TORX available at Harbor Freight
The manifold bolt are probably what’s called a triple square bit Volkswagen uses them a lot
the exhaust manifold bolts are most likely spline drive vs torch drive
Them exhaust manifold bolts take a Triple Square bit Toyota uses them on head bolts and a few others you should invest in some you will end up breaking Torx bits or round out the inside of them using torx
Watching your video I know for sure what F type stands for, it means failure type.
Might be a stupid question. Does removing the engine change the balance on the lift?
It can.
Absolutely it does. Depending how far forward the rear lift points are, there is a chance that the chassis could rock backwards and fall off the lift... It might be fine, and might not...
I think you should start giving repairability scores like iFixit. Jag f type v6 ... 2/10.
What model is the small Milwaukee impact that you use?
Prob that is the safest bet (new engine). But good lord, that's a little too crammed together and shoved into too tight a spot - glad my car is more service freindly. Probably be a really good idea to really fuss over the new engine to ensure everything is perfect (from pulley bearings to the water pump, etc, etc, etc) before putting it back home since the engine is now properly accessible (I'm sure you thought of that though).
Spambot reported...
Probably an obvious question, but: what causes the exhaust stud bolts to be so impossible to break loose? Are they intended to be non-serviceable? Or is it just heat/age just glues them in place?
Heat cycle and corrosion. Gets red hot then cold over and over again , condensation from the heat cycle and road water causes rust which effectively glues the two surfaces (bolt and threaded hole) together and the bolt would rather snap than undo. You can reprint this with anti seize pastes however putting a paste or liquid can and will effect torque settings you can apply as you can not compress a liquid and thus essential torque settings may be effected or give you false readings after the use of pastes. Hence most manufacturers don’t use them. It’s fine to use anti seize but be aware. ✌️
Could those bolts be triple squares on the header?
Exhaust manifold bolts might be TP50 aka T50 Plus size
Lots of heat on exhaust bolt before tring.
Your happy little penetrating brush.....ok John Bob Ross!! 👍😀👍 That was a good one!! (And apologies if I misspelled your name.)
How does replacing transmission fluid accelerate its wear?...
Order you that 52 tork socket you’ll need it to keep from bugger up the nuts
Perhaps install new motor mounts while everything is torn down this far?
It's geting there now. Good effort.
I think this is the first time I have seen a lady in the shop who was not there with a husband/boyfriend etc. It looked strange lol.
N :-)
Are the exhaust manifold bolts torx plus instead of torx?
I think they are Polydrive.
@@miketdavies I think poly drive is specific to Volkswagen and their brands Audi, Porsche, Bentley, ect. I also think poly drive is basically the same shape/profile as torx plus.
