Hello, My first post, I have owned my XK120 45 years. A full restoration from 2012 to 2014. It lived
in our barn in Surrey BC for thirty years. As we were selling our place
I decided on the full treatment, doing only grunt work myself. lately after warming up the car she starts a loudish howl which disappears with RPM. I feel it may be
carburators. No vibration noticed. A mechanic could not trace it. Any advise would be welcome....Siggy

Welcome to the forums Siggy,

It's going to need an audio or video clip posting to get help with the noise.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...k140-xk150-60/ to the XK120 / XK140 / XK150 forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is 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 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.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
