Default Fun (Holi)day with my favorite girl

Happy 4th....glad we Yanks and you Brits could stay friends after we had our little disagreement 200+ years ago. As such, we got to enjoy Jag SIII's in 1986 and we gave you Madonna. Both sexy with questionable attributes 🥰

But summer mission creep has commenced. Rack project has finished the OUT phase and now just need to get the checkbook out to begin the IN phase

Hey but while things are coming out why not replace coolant hoses and freshen the petina of the tranny cooler and replace fuel lines in engine bay?

And damn...do I have a stakedown kit?? Well I won't know tonight since some dipshit atJag had all nuts on valve cover except one f'in star bolt...the only tool I don't have this eve.

But fun fun...God I hope she starts again in a couple months after I have banged around all these brittle engine bay wires 😳

Its a Jag, of course it will start again.

It has oil to leak out of a new hole.

A properly sized Allen head will get those Torx screws off in a pinch. Have to admit they are less likely to cam out than a Phillips or Posi-drive.

Harbor Freight has Torx sets for not a lot of money. They'll do fine for most people, unless you're using them all the time.
