Adjusting the Upper Timing Chain on a Jaguar XK Engine

[@RickCT2000]

Disassembly video would be very interesting!!!

[@naiche.]

Yes please on the disassembly video! I think we could all learn a lot from watching

[@lachlanfernie6150]

A series of videos on stripping down and rebuilding an XK engine would be fantastic!

[@LivingWithAClassic]

This would just be a strip down. I will be rebuilding my 3.8 XK at some point when funds allow

[@williamendres1265]

Another great tutorial, thanks Adam! Would love to see a disassembly!

[@hughbishopnh]

Disassembly video on an XK would be excellent. Thanks.

[@richardgreene3460]

A+ video with clear instruction! I just did this on my 62 XKE!

[@pril250]

Yes for disassembly👌☝

[@bobstride6838]

Love to see the disassembly video Adam

[@jeffharrison5265]

Great tip!! I'll have to pick up that tool. I can see it will come in handy someday. Looks to be a lot easier than the IRS mounts replacement I just finished. Nasty job that one!

[@4WDIESEL1]

yes to the engine video.

[@boatslave1]

Love to see the xk 3ngine pulled apart

[@uhn100]

Great video Adam I would really like to see you disassembe the other engine tanks Andy.

[@LivingWithAClassic]

Coming soon!

[@kitcarson4731]

Definately yes to a strip down! :-) Great video

[@aaronsmith6715]

Be great to see an engine breakdown explanation video. Expect to do one soon, so would be great to get some tips.

[@johndavey72]

Hi Adam . I do paint and panel but after watching your careful and detailed explaination l really think l could do this . As slways , many thanks Adam .

[@hueyhoolihan582]

yes, a complete disassembly would be nice. after a cross-country drive of 3000 miles, i found that my newly purchased 3.4l mk2 engine block was cracked and am having a new one installed, along with an entire overhaul on the head. so it would be nice to see what my $25,000 price tag is all about. :)

[@mikedx2706]

Great video, as always.

[@njp100]

I would like to see a total disassembly. Thanks.

[@michelswerissen6544]

Disassembly yes, video approved, click.

[@jeffreyprice773]

You can adjust the top chain clockwise, if the chain noice is still there after adjustment anticlockwise. Did it for 50 years as a jag tech. I used to make my own adjustment tool, A tube, 2 short pieces of 1/8" silver steel rod brazed on the outside of the tube opposite each other then braze on a handle, i made loads used to sell em for a £1 each in the 1970's. Just sayin'.

[@mikedx2706]

????? WTF?

[@jaguarrroman]

Thumb up!

[@davidocymru]

See a disassembly, Yes please.

[@keb4056]

hi living with a classic guru , whatt is the torque setting for the tensioner locking nut when retightening ??? plus can you tension the chains with the cam covers left on ??

[@matsjohansson3074]

Tack!

[@parrotraiser6541]

How do you determine if the ternsion is correct?

[@jeffreyprice773]

Turn the tool lightly until it stops.

[@magnusterminus4728]

What sound will a loose chain make?

[@LivingWithAClassic]

A rattle and possibly a metallic scraping sound

[@ChitenderanoChavapositori-h5o]

[@christophermarshall5765]

Take it apart. Do an "autopsy" on it.
