Default New guy from Northern VA

I'm actually not the owner of this 99xk8 but I have been working on it for the last few months. The passenger side secondary chain tensioner failed and caused the chain to break. I have completely torn down the engine, had the bent valves replaced, replaced all the chain tensioners and chains, and have rebuilt the engine. Without knowing my fathers login info I figured I'd start my own account with the forum. So, hello and thank you in advanced for anyone who can help me.

Welcome to the forum Bowman,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see 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.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the USA Mid Atlantic Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/usa-mid-atlantic-md-va-dc-de-wv-65/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
