Thank you. I appreciate you watching and commenting.

Just be happy Jaguar put the timing chains on the front side of the engine. I was working on a Touareg Voltswagon /Audi engine that put everything on the rear side and requires pulling the engine, remove the transmission and plate just to get access. It's a terrible design.

Oh man, that sounds like an awful job. I'll definitely pass on one of those. Thank you for watching and commenting.

Ok bon Travail mais vous auriez pu nettoyer les pièces ( carter ,poulies ) avant montage et mettre courroie et galets neufs ..Cordialement .

Great video 👍🏼 did you get the idling to smooth out?

[@funjunkiegarage]

Thank you. Yes, after running it for a bit and adding fresh fuel it started running much better. Much appreciate you watching and commenting.

Which cylinder is number 1? I understand the cam flat spot but not where TDC is

[@funjunkiegarage]

#1 is driver side, front of engine. TDC is when the #1 piston reaches the very top of its stroke. TDC on the compression stroke is what you want, not exhaust stroke. You can confirm compression stroke by checking the position of the flywheel. It's a very strange method for sure.

@@funjunkiegarageBy putting the flywheel lock tool in? Thank you very much!

[@funjunkiegarage]

Yes, by putting the lock tool in. Thank you for watching and commenting.
