Default New XJ6 owner

Hey.
A friend gave me an 86 series 3 to use.
It's a #3 driver.

Having issues with:
Smog
Temperature / cooling

Read some of the old threads, which were helpful.

Anyhow, just trying to clarify what is "normal" operating temp. Will probably replace thermostat, cold start sensor, and possibly radiator this weekend, with my friend who has shop and parts. ( Jag guy.)
Any suggestions / any answers appreciated.
Thx.

Hello,
My Jag has a Chevy Heart so I can't really help with the inner workings of the XK engine your car has. However, over in our Xj6 playpen, where I gather you've been lurking for a while, other members with this engine and will be able to help and guide you with whatever you need.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
