In 1986 this XJ12 ran hot and blew it's V12 engine. It has been sitting every since with no engine. It's time to give this forgotten Jaguar a new life and a new V12 engine! The engine is installed now, will it run?

The sound of a Jag V12 trying to start is unmistakeable.

There's something special about a V12 and those who know what they are doing when working on them. It's great to have both the back story and the engineering side in these videos.

Great work! It's going to live another day.

Fantastic. I'm a BMW guy and have been for years, but the 5.3 V12 is possibly my favourite engine. It's just superb. I was lucky enough to own one in an XJ-S 35 years ago. It's so important to keep these cars going. Jaguar as a company is just about dead now - for me it died years ago but their reputation was founded on these cars. All the money and engineers Mercedes had and they still couldn't beat a few clever guys in a small factory in Coventry. 😀

It would be nice to know your backstory. We you Jaguar trained/mechanically trained or self taught?

Even though it is a 4-door, Patrick Macnee would have been proud!

Well done, it's always a good feeling when they fire up for the first time after lying dormant for so many years

@LivingWithAClassic 22 дня назад

It sure is

The firing order hoodie would appeal to me more if it said "Jaguar V12" and had a logo.

Thanks for the input

Now I know what a V-12 tractor sounds like. :-)* Would a stand of the kind hospitals use for saline drips (to keep their prisoners from escaping) be a way to rig up an external fuel supply for early-stage engine tests?
