Default newbie with a 84 XJS with a wee12

Hello, I am the riding mechanic in my wife's latest purchase. Turns out before she bought the 95 Caddy with 43k miles she was in the market for a Jaguar. Had I known, I might not have married her. So now I have the hands of a V12 owner,read small cuts.I'm only 5-11" tall so the hands don't fit into the areas that require attention. But that's the joy of being a riding mechanic.

Welcome to the forum mikeburg,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the XJS 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 West Region forum by following this link USA Mid West - IL IN IA MI MN MO OH WI - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
