Hi all
Does anyone know if there is a set of drawing for the tools to do the timing upgrade on the AJ V8 motor. Mine is a 1999 s type 4 litre

Thanks Pete

 

I have attached several good articles on tensioner's and how to change them.

The uppers are the same effort as the XJ/XK cars. The lowers, which require the timing cover to be removed, suck because the timing cover has to be removed. And removing the timing cover is a bunch more work.

 

Not sure this is any help but just in case:

 

Thank you for you help

Pete

 

I've got your back, John...........

You should probably replace that bulletin with this one. This has the part numbers for the newer tensioners that have the metal bodies. The actual part numbers change yet again, but they will get you where you need to go.

Cheers,

 

Steve - thanks! I didn't know about that one.

Two techs in a short thread. Wow. Us amateurs are gonna be redundant.

 

The S-Type (AJ28) crank lock tool is different from the XJ/XK 4.0

The cam tools are the same.

3 techs. Where's Bill?

 

Once again thanks very much
