AJ V8 timing tools

Hi all
Does anyone know if there is a set of drawing for the tools to do the timing upgrade on the AJ V8 motor. Mine is a 1999 s type 4 litre

Thanks Pete

The uppers are the same effort as the XJ/XK cars. The lowers, which require the timing cover to be removed, suck because the timing cover has to be removed. And removing the timing cover is a bunch more work.

You should probably replace that bulletin with this one. This has the part numbers for the newer tensioners that have the metal bodies. The actual part numbers change yet again, but they will get you where you need to go.

Cheers,
