Welcome to the forums EdwardE,

Unless you catch an overheat situation very quickly, the heads are usually too warped to recover by skimming.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/f-type-x152-72/ to the F-Type forum for help, advice and information.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Welcome to the forum EdwardE,

Good to have you with us.
Enjoy the forum.

If you haven't done so already you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

Hello, Edward,
I'm sorry your F-type got hot under the collar. I hope you find a good solution to that problem so you can once again DRIVE THE WHEELS OFF!!
