Hello, everyone. My name is Frank. I live in Ontario, Canada, close to Kingston. I have two Jags. A 1976 XJ-S, which needs head work due to a dropped valve. I'll find out more when I get the head off. I also have a '99 XJ8 which I just swapped the motor from a 2000 XJ8. I've had the '76 for seven years and the XJ8 for three years. I enjoy them quite a bit when they're running.

Welcome to the forums Ft59,

Good to have you with us. I've always found one Jaguar at a time is sufficient of a challenge.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xjs-x27-32/ to the XJS forum and this one https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xj-xj8-xjr-x308-27/ to the X308 forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' threads at the top of each are a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the Canada Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/canada-73/ to find other members in your region.

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

Default Thank you

Thanks for having me. I agree. One at a time is probably enough but the price was right for the XJ8.
