  1. Hi Ben You said no fuel getting to your injectors or the Pump and then you said you got some but it didnt stay .??? I would say its the pump because the pump valves are letting the fuel return and not holding the preasure , Saying that a pipe or a fuel filter between the pump and the pump can have the same effect.??? so check filter and pipes first ----.hope this helps .??? Frank
  2. Hi ---There's a lot of things being said about the speed locking of the car could put you in danger if you had a bump its just that I've always thought and was told at one time that they lock to prevent the doors flying open if you have a heavy front end bump so preventing a Concettina affect and not just for bad people getting in .??? And so saying this-- I would say keep them working but of course its everyone to there own choice .??? Frank
  3. They are back on ebay=== http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MAISTO-1-18-31865-JAGUAR-S-TYPE-1999-METALLIC-GOLD-DIECAST-MODEL-CAR-/291436461092?_trksid=p2054897.l4275 Frank
  4. There is a additive you can use that is made to free off sticky valve lifters Ive never used one so can't comment .----But i have heard of --Wynns Hydraulic Valve Lifter Treatment --Get it from Halfords I would think it would be cheaper than letting it get too bad and then have to replace parts.???? Frank
  5. I agree with Ron a oil change would perhaps cure the problem because it sounds to be a automatic tappet adjuster sticking they work on oil pressure so when you flip the throttle the pressure adjusts it .??? Frank
  6. Hi Russ I'm not a betting man but from what the fitter who cured my problem said ??I would say your trouble is down to the drivers door lock.??? Frank
  7. Hi haydn I had a problem with my locks mine is a X type but it could be the same .???? It started with the drivers door not locking with the fob I had to lock and unlock it with the key not always but it was anoying.??? I took it to the small garage I use-- its a one man garage but he's good and this is what he did==== Opened the drivers window then put the key in the ignition and turned it on then holding the inside drivers door handle he locked and unlocked the door with the small lever just above the inside door handle you could hear all the locks going in and out so he then squirted WD 40 useing the small red pipe right into the inside door handle and also the door lock itself then worked the small lever a few times again .??? He did say to me if it keeps doing it I will need a new drivers door lock ---Ive used the car about 10 times since and its done it once so fingers X. Frank

  12. I was thinking that when the coil got hot if faulty it would break down .??? a few years back the coils used to give a problem like this .??? The same as you I'm trying to think what could fail on warm up. Frank
  13. Hi Mark If I can just ask is it as the car reaches running temp or is it after a period of time I ask this because on a petrol engine in the days before all these sensors I would have said its the coil .???? Over heating and breaking down. Frank
