Hi All. Just purchased a 1988 XJSC 12 with 142000 on the clock. We are in the Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia Canada. My research told me I will be in for a lot of "tinkering". True to form; parking brake not functioning, horn nf, air conditioning nf, stereo will not accept security code, running very rich, idles high (2500) in park. and I am sure more issues will be found. My automotive background has always been with Gen. 1 Mazda RX-7's so this will be a bit more, to be kind.... complicated, but am ready to get stuck in.

First question for the wizards that be. Which Manual(s) are recommended? I prefer very detailed. The Haynes manuals for example just do not cover things in enough detail.
