    Cooling water hose layout

    Hi Deankdx Thanks for your reply. The engine bay is fairly cramped so photos is relatively impossible. I said its a mid 80`s XF in a 1949 Jaguar. Top hose from thermostat is direct to top radiator . Bottom hose goes to water pump. The small 5/8" fitting on the pump then tee`s off to the top of the 5/8" fitting on the cylinder head and onto the rear end of the inlet manifold. The 5/8" fitting on the front of the engine block at the top goes to the front-side of the inlet manifold. Hope that makes sense. NO heater matrix is fitted. Just need to know that its not going to get hot! Another fault (not long had this car and every thing i touch is flogged out and I`m not a Ford man). The advance /retard was ceased. So removed the dizzy and freed it up. Had a fair bit of trouble re-installed the damn thing and had to fix the oil pump drive into the dizzy to get fitted. It seems to have no oil pressure now! However i have got oil up to the rockers. I`ve also noticed the oil filter is also empty! I`m quite sure i had oil pressure before. Thanks in advance, any help greatly received. Roger
