UK Member intro
Hi all
I intercepted an X-Type wagon on it's way to the scrapyard/crusher and after some interesting diagnosis I replaced the entire fuel system as the HP pump had self digested and contaminated everything with glitter, that's now my daily.
Now I am about to acquire an early XK8, which appears to be not broken at all - which is disappointing as I like to fix things. I prefer an oscilloscope and code reader to a hammer, so expect to see me chime in about electrical issues.

Hello,
"Intercepted..." What a wonderful way of putting it!
Congratulations on your Latest Jaguar even though it's not broken. I'm sure you'll find something to do to it.
