Hi all. I live in Kingston, Surrey UK and as of July 2014 own a 1998 XK8 convertible with 84k on the clock. I've changed out a lower ball joint so far (https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...t-situ-123638/) and I'm planning on replacing all the chains and tensioners in Sept. If anyone knows where I can borrow/hire the timing tools in the London area I'd appreciate a heads up, failing that I will hire from the JEC.

Cheers

Peter

 

Welcome Peter.

Good idea those chain etc updates.

I have no idea in your part of the globe, but there will be words of wisdom soon I reckon.

You are already posting in the XK8/XKR tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.
