I will send you my phone number in a PM and we can figure things out at that point.

Paul, I am going to be right around the corner from you. The plant is in Delta, PA. If you want to hook up, let me know. Maybe if there are other members in the area, we can get something going.
Chris,
If I had the room you would be more than welcome.
when you get your schedule we should work on setting up a meet in the regional section I could throw some tools in the trunk if anyone close needs some help. I am scheduled to be in Michigan until the 7th.

Paul, as it stands right now, I am driving up to near Delta PA on Monday Oct 19th and will be leaving either late on the 31st or possibly the morning of Nov 1st. Granted, if I am leaving on the 1st, then I would be tempted on taking the day and turning into a fun day to enjoy with fellow jaguar owners. I am probably not going to know much more till I get up there and get situated in with the guys I am working with.

Wa3ra, would you add some good details to 'freshen it up'?
The act, (in my case at 131,000 miles, is at the crux of my concern on a 2000 S. TIA.
Other opinions also gladly heard.

The relays in said S, have not changed. The same issues, questions, ideas may interest another. We may have the same S, or not. I'm sad that mine is a replacement, but at a 2000, the same yr or a yr older.
