I have a spare brand new pipe you can have for $100. shipped in the US If you are interested please post contact info.

 

I was able to cross the Jag rear brake caliper and come up with a Linclon replacement part at a considerable savings. 3.0 standard Jag

 

Please post more details, especially part #s. Someone else may thank you.

 

i second your thought george thanks for initial info to do research on

they are same , the colour is same as per data sheet , mercon sp is dyed red later according to motorcraft to identify leaks more easily as per ford instructions

the flash point of lg6 is less cause data sheet is from 2006 but mercon data sheet is from 2008 and synthetic based
find lg6 data sheet from 2008 , it shows almost same flash point and everything , just slightly different maybe due to different testing methods
like flashpoint in zf data says typical 210 (coc) and in mercon 218 c c
i think its yhis coc and c c that makes it different (i can be wrong just my thinking)

ignition temp , vapour preassure , vapour density , boiling point , upper lower explosion limit , water sloubility , pour point(read somewhere else)
and lot more is exactly same

only flash point and viscosity are little different and also difference is just of few % and that i think is just due to different testing methods or just cause its blended here in america , method or chemical might cause a little difference but my opinion just says its just testing method

i am putting mercon sp in my gearbox , if its good for zf box in lot heavier navigator then its good for our zf box
all the zf boxes 6hp26 in every manufacturer let it be audi , vw , jaguar , land rover etc have same fluid and can be bought from any dealer and used and all use lg6
why wud zf custom make one off 6hp26 that uses a completely new fluid?


latest lg6 bottles after 2008 say synthetic transmission fluid

i am pretty convinced and enuf to put it in my stype r
its just my opinion , please do your own research and use at ur own risk
i can be wrong , everything is possible

cheers

 

Mercon SP is Shell 1374.1 is Lifeguard 6, for the zfhp26 transmission in whatever vehicle. Reference can be made to the ZF website. If anyone interested, I have an excess supply of Mercon SP in the UK, properly imported for my Lincoln Navigator, at less that half the cost of Lifeguard 6 under any other label. You can contact me on restemmons@aol.com. Thanks.

 

I love this thread so much...

 

is there a ford fuel injector that is the same as a 03 s type r?

 

No. Ford never produced a DEW based car with a supercharger. Only Jaguar did.

Doesn't mean they didnt go into the ford parts Bin and grab the Bosch svo injectors off a mustang cobra. For the jag branded s/c car. Pretty much everyone else uses them.

Let me do some research.

Take care,

George

 

I think they're Denso injectors...

However, why? What's wrong? Have you had it/them ultrasonic cleaned and flow tested?

 

I had my check engine light come on, then the "Restricted Performance" display. Went to Advance Auto for the free check. It read #7 ignition coil, changed that no difference went back to Advance and now it reads code P0207 #7 fuel injector circuit

 

Great thread, George!
Thanks,
Steve

 

Don't assume it's the injector. The wiring is at least as likely.

 

bernieii - before replacing that injector - Check the electrical connector to fuel injector #7 - make sure connector is on there nice and tight! (especially if the plastic connector tab is broken or snapped off which is very common on these engines) - your code indicates the connector is loose...

 

I would swap injectors to see if the code followed the injector. If not then I would suspect the wiring.

Cabin air filter for my S 2003 V6 is Jag part no XR 849205 it says Ford right on the part and the number is 2R83 18D483 AD I didn't see much benefit in cost but they might be easier for some to source.

 

Power steering pressure sensor - only sold by Jaguar as part of a pipe (costing over $200 in the part of the world) - part no: XR8-33363.
Used on the Lincoln LS, Ford part number XW43-3N824-AA0312. Cost me less than $45 for the sensor on its own (no unnecessary pipework)

I have also been looking at brake hardware on Rockauto - specifically caliper guide pins and bolts. The parts listed for the 2001 S-type and 2001 LS are the same (front and rear). That led me to check the following:

Front and rear calipers - same part numbers
Master cylinders - each one looked at had matching part numbers (Lincoln Interactive Vehicle Dynamics = Jaguar Dynamic Stability Control)
Front and Rear discs (rotors) - same part numbers
Brake boosters (servos) - same part numbers.
Caliper guide pins and bolts - same
Brake hoses front and rear - same part number
Caliper brackets front and rear - same part number

So at an educated guess I would say that every major component of the pre-facelft S-Type braking system matches the 2001 LS. I don't have the Lincoln part numbers but at least it means that for anyone with a Ford/Lincoln dealership nearby you can get the bits over the counter.

 

I don't suppose you guys would have a cross reference for a naturally aspirated 4.2 04 s type fuel pump? Also what about tranny pan/filter cross? Any input would be appreciated.

 

the flex joint coupler from a 2000 lincoln ls part number XW4Z4782AB the same as xw4w4684ab 2000 jag s type?
