Well, I went and pulled the trigger and bought this 91. Now I have to fight the need to drive her constantly and instead take some time to go over everything to make sure she's good to go. She's running and driving but I want to go over all the fuel lines, etc so I don't get any surprises. So far, only one oil dripping ares, which compared to my MG is amazing.

 

Wow, looks great!

Tinted glass?

Good luck with her,

Rob

 

Tinted, has been in Arizona part of it's life.

 

Very sharp... And I love the red Jaguar wheel decor.

 

Looks gorgeous!! Well done. Good call on the replacing the rubber fuel lines. Tedious but well worth it not having an engine fire or fuel leak running out of gas at an inconvenient time and place. 30 year old car so you might consider a new fuel pump, sump tank filter. New radiator fluid and trans fluid might be worth doing at some point as well.
What color is the interior? Anything not work on the car?

 

I've only driven her around the block. Everything appears to work except for Dome Light inside. The exhaust smells like a gas station so maybe running rich for some reason.

idle speed adjusted

You got a steal with all that work, most pretty expensive, done. Enjoy like mad!!

 

Looks like a Rouge edition? Im jealous.

 

Bee-you-tee-ful

she is a beauty

 

I drive a facelift model but want one of these. Good looking car!

 

Gorgeous, I like the Red with the light tan interior. Very clean inside, and out. All I can say is fix a few little things as you mentioned, and enjoy. Wow, Very Nice.

Like the rest - nice car.
Very cool, love the red trim on the seats!

 

This seems .... incorrect

 

Yeah that's probably not factory. That appears to be a fuel pressure regulator just below your hand in the picture? Can't tell for sure but it looks to have a hose connected to it, so not really sure where else it could go??? Good Luck.

Jack

 

Definitely not correct - need more pics - may be part of the extra air injection that I believe US cars got

 

That is small tube is part of either

• the vacuum operated cold start up system, or
• the vacuum dump valve that is a safety item on the cruise control dropout system.
• the unit underneath is part of this system.

The air injection system is separate.

 

Not sure they could have incorporated many more points of failure - would the pipe and device that you're thinking of be on one of these Greg ?

 

yes indeed, Ben. It will be one of the dump valve or switching valve pipes, I believe, or part of the cruise control safety dumping of the vac valve, if that one is not in this diagram!.

 

It is one of the cruise control parts. There were three connections on the blue piece in the picture. One air line went to the manifold on that side, one went no where (screw in end) and then the electrical connection to the cruise control bellows. As the cruise control was not working (switch not even connected in the car) I've removed it all and bagged it for future project.
