Default New XK8 owner in Tulsa, OK

Gentlemen,

Yesterday I picked up a 97 XK8 that had been garaged after some engine problems. 8 months later the owner still hadn't diagnosed the issues, so he decided to part with it and let someone else tackle it.

I towed it back home yesterday and got it into the garage. After 12 hours of driving I decided not to mess with it, and start fresh with the next opporunity I get.

Anyway, pleasure to join the forums. Regards,

Jonny

Welcome to the forums from a fellow Oklahoman. I just picked up my 72 XJ6 on Saturday.

Welcome Jonny,

I see you've already found you way to the XK8 section with a parking brake problem. No doubt there'll be a lot more questions when you get to assess the engine.

Welcome to the forum Phillip,

Good to have you with us.
I hope it's not too serious.

Welcome, Phillip. The XK8/XKR guys are a great bunch.
