- A quick update video from March 22, 2024 showing some of the work we've done. We also get into a debatable topic which is how deep this work will go - it's spring time, and I'd like to drive this car. I may be doing some of this again to really make the engine bay perfect. For now, I need to try and limit scope to the truly needed things, things that can really harm V12 Jags. Just look at those rubber fuel lines!
Would've loved to see the process step-by-step of taking everything apart.
You should only use Gates Multifuel Premium fuel hoses or Milspec viton 3 layer hoses from Dupont
Deadlines on my 89’ XJS are somewhat fluid. Depends on how much $$$ I want to pay my mechanic or do myself. Always best to do as much work as I can. After rebuilding the fuel injectors, distributor, chain tensioner (huge job) myself, the heater regulator in the rear of the engine bay started leaking on top of the transmission . I am convinced it will only ever be 90% at best no matter what gets repaired.
I own an 88 XJS, snd have modified the exhaust and added all aluminum radiator.
Great video. Looking to purchase an xjs so this was helpful.
7:04 Oh, lose vacuum lines can really haunt you. Even on a more modern car 💀💀
Great Video. Are you located in Texas?
