2000 xjr timing chain tensioners
Hi all, I am planning a full replacement of timing chain and tensioners. Can the forum please suggest where to get the parts needed and all tools to do the job right. Also is there a repair manual available that shows the procedure in doing this repair. Thanks to all. Robert.

Been covered many times, simply do a search for Tensioner Replacement or similar and you'll get around a 100 threads. Also do a search for Blackonyx tensioner replacement, this one works using Google or Bing also. One bit of advice, do the coolant lines under the supercharger at this time, your almost there anyways. And you can search for SC coolant line replacement also and get another 100 threads.

Here is my parts list for 2000 XK8.
Timing chain kit: for Lincoln LS
DNJ. # TK4162 $172 @ Rockauto.
Everything fits perect except in my opinion the guides are incorrect. Some members have used the guides in the kit but I didn't like the way they fit. I got the guides separately from SnG listed below. Still cheaper than buying a Jaguar kit.
Cam cover kit: for Lincoln LS
Fel-Pro. # VS50724R. $44 @ Partsgeek.
Doesn't come with VVT seal.
VVT seals:
2- AJ8256. $5ea @ AutohausAZ
SNG Barrett for next items.
Timing cover gaskets:
AJ83699. $16
NCA2127AC. $17(Lincoln LS different)
Chain guides:
2- NCA2025AB. $23ea
2- NCA1998AB. $33ea
From RMEUROPEAN
Crankshaft seal:
AJ83698. $10.25
Total: $381.25 + any shipping charges
This is what I found that works for the best price. You can do your own research and may do better.
This from October last year so prices may be different. Search the part#'s.
You will need a timing kit

In my opinion the easiest way to remove crank pulley.

I got a complete kit, I state in my threads that the chains were tight going on vs. those coming off....about 3/32"- 1/8", ....also possible because of the guides. That I had to slide them on sequentially to get the cogs on and aligned.
