Default Hi there

Hi everyone. Have just purchased a 1999 XJR with 72k on the clock. Bought as a non-runner turns over but no start. Project commences here! I had a late 2000 XJR around 10 years ago and have always wanted another one ever since i sold it in 2012...so here we are!
Believe I may have a nikasil engine with associated problems (first registered 1-sep-1999) but will figure it all out as I go... havent looked at the block yet

... wish me luck... and thanks in advance for all your help as I am sure I will be asking for it!
Sam.
