    Those are definitely niche vehicles, but you're setting yourself to be 'the mechanic' for your local Jag enthusiasts. Good job.

    Well, you will never feel this excitement of the engine starts after the head gasket job if you are driving an electric car.
  • @bassiclymike
    Well done! Those are nice, smooth, powerful motors when they're running good.
  • @rbeaver5257
    Thanks for the great videos! Jaguars are iconic. Its a shame that the current models are not designed to set themselves apart like the ones made 2007 and earlier.
  • @jwelchon2416
    Very good!! You have a phenomenal memory. I couldn't remember where the head goes.
  • @76Starship
    Wow.... Nice job getting that thing to run again. :)
  • @sharifsircar
    Once you have the place paid off, it'll be interesting to see what projects you pick up!
  • @JonnyDIY
    Great job Eman! 👏 You deserve a Keg of beer after this one! 🛢🍻 PS- let me know if you remember where that lone bolt goes!
  • @MrGodsking
    I done lots and lots of jag heads especially v12s
  • @bassiclymike
    I think I might see where your missing bolt goes... go to 7:19 and take a look at the rear coolant passage (between cylinders 4 and 5) that goes from the head to the intake... On the gasket, you see a bolt hole with nothing in it. The forward coolant passage between cylinders 2 & 3 has 4 bolts (studs actually) around it all installed. Could this be it? If not, wait for a vaccum, coolant, water, or exhaust leak.

    The bolt should goes into recycling section
  • @scottpollard3270
    You're doing great if you only have one bolt left over. I'd be concerned if three or more. Lol
  • @lubetube.
    I know where that bolts goes....over your left shoulder👍.
