Re: ABS fault 1990 V12 Conv XJS
There's a diagnostic procedure detailed in the ROM involving blink codes from the warning light. Unfortunately the interpretation is seven pages long so you really need to get a copy of the manual (on CD-Rom from the JDHT for £16 or so.) Basically you insert a shorting link into the econoseal plasti...

Re: V12 plumbing
I've recently had the cam covers etc off my '89 V12 which means taking the induction manifolds and injection equipment off and I'm not sure that I've put all the vacuum pipes back in the right place. The engine is a bit rough and appears to be running rich (inside of exhaust pipe black - exhaust gas...

Got the feeling the 2;88 diff made it too high geared in top so changed to a 3;54 which was much better. Gear box used is a five speed getrag spoke to those who know who used the same box in racing a...

The speedo works ok and rev counter if you have the twin coil set up gets its signal on the V12 from one coil the difference is the red mark on the V12 is six and a half and the six is five and a half I think. I got two plug adapters made up from a friend of Paul Banham 01843 844962. Problems are th...
