Default Rusted & not running

Hello everyone, brought this one home recently. Currently sitting for lack of a trigger board and fuel system parts but hopefully worth saving.

Welcome to the Forums.

ALWAYS worth saving. Mine is just topping 700000kms, and still as made in Coventry.

Good luck.

Hello,
Congratulations on your new Jaguar Xj6 Series 2! The most Beeeeautiful Jaguar ever to roll off the line! (I freely admit my bias)
I'll look for you over in our Xj6 Series section where GGG has directed you.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. First question is about fuel injector O ring kits & gaskets. Can I get away with rock auto aftermarket stuff or do I need a specific brand. Does anyone have a source in the southeast US for Payen gaskets? Thanks again.

You should repost this and future TECHNICAL questions in the MODEL forum.
