Possible Purchase - 98 XJR

Yea, it must be the o-rings on the valve cover that are letting oil in. There's a good amount in some of the holes, guess I'll try to soak it up with a rag best I can, but don't think getting a little oil in the cylinders when I remove them will be a huge problem. Just glad I got the plugs loose, was pretty worried there when i first tried to remove them...

I receive the parts/gaskets yesterday but haven't taken a good look yet. I got them from Christopher's Foreign Car Parts as I've seen recommended on this forum, hopefully the gaskets are decent. They should be for the price...Since mine is an early car I had to buy the expensive valce cover gaskets.

I rarely see X308s on the road anymore that it's quite a treat when I do. I actually saw a nice dark blue XJ the other day and it caught me by surprise seeing one on the road. Couldn't stop looking at it. I can't wait until I finish with the tensioner work and get the rear seat back in the car from repairing the speaker, I just want to drive it at this point. I'll hopefully be done with the work by mid next week and can get the new tires installed and start driving it a few days a week.
