I need an English source for a V-12 idler pulley with bracket plus a set of the intake manifold plugs used on UK cars. The US spec cars have the hole for the air injection system.

Cleaning up the aesthetics in the V-12.

I have a friend travelling to the UK 4-8 April.

Thx

 

I got the parts you're looking for from Ben @ Simply Performance.

 

Also worth contacting Andy Harvey at Just XJS in the UK.

I bought it from them. Since I'm also "cleaning" the engine, how (with what) do you seal the holes in the intake?

 

I THINK the plug part number is EAC3975. It seems to describe it as such on the Jaguar parts website.

Although Jaguar show it as costing £1.30, but currently out of stock, on their website, they seem to have them for sale at £6.29 on their eBay store. See here: Jaguar Genuine Manifold Plug Screw Nut Bolt Stopper Spare Fits XJ EAC3975 | eBay

Hope that helps,

I don't think that is the part Brad needs. I think he is thinking of 12 blanks to close off the air injection holes.
Brad, if I am right, I do not think Rushton offer these any more, so tapping and grub screws is probably the best idea.

 

Tks Greg!

Sorry if I misled you, Brad!

Yes, I meant blinding the 12 air intake holes.
So far, my friend and I have created a blind, see the picture.
It's welded to the original oval mount and of course rubber seals will fit into the hole.
I just wanted to know how other people have dealt with it.
