Default Hello from North Texas

Greeting from Denton, TX.
Finally got my first Jag: an '02 XK8 Conv. I cut my teeth on British cars at 16 on a '79 MG Midget. Worst year possible and I knew that going in, yet I went for it anyway and learned to wrench and have been doing so ever since. Left the scene at 19 and now 26 years later I'm back with the Brits. Have always loved Jags and am fortunate to be helping out on a '50's XK120 FHC.

Been lurking a bit and have even ordered the pressure relief valve to avoid the hydraulic nightmare that seems destined for the convertible top.

Be seeing you...

Welcome to the forum daves_ale,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

It sounds like you've already found your way to 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.

You can also visit the USA Southwest Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/usa-southwest-az-tx-nm-ok-37/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
