    X FILES

    I couldn't believe it when I went to bolt it in,trims were in such good condition, then painted them and don't fit,another x file.

    X FILES

    Here is another one,xg kick panel seat belt hole is further up than xf,behind it says hole for 92 and hole for 94,so I had to drill out the 92 and put a blank behind the 94 one ?

    At first glance a xe bumper iron looks like it will work on a xf ,the mounting and bumper holes are the same size,but the xf one is an inch longer and sticks out,myth busted.

    Xf falcon alloy head torque specs

    i did a crossflow engine last week and its 70ft/lbs on all except the one the negative terminal bolts to,thats the single bolt closest to front of engine its 55 ft/lbs and when doing a rebuild use some sealer or something on the thread as it goes into the water jacket at the bottom,not 100% you need too but helps not freezing the bolt in there from rust after years of use.i would say your head gasket is gone not a big deal in a day you could unbolt it all and clean up and put new head gasket and done.

    chassis number confusion

    yes line 2 was for capris,louisville trucks,late xf utes (not all of them ,i guess how busy it was on the week)searching last night i found another JL40 ute so if you have one they are very rare,my 92 xf ute was definatley a JG40.

    chassis number confusion

    XD Heater vacuum diagram.

    the hoses are all hooked up but still nothing ,when i installed the radio i guess while it was all out that was the time to fix it ,but who could i take it too ,to fix it properly ? a auto electrician ? or someone else.or take it apart again and start testing stuff one by one,sounds like a massive job .

    XD Heater vacuum diagram.

    lets bring this thread to light as its one of the last jobs to fix on the xe ,my heater does work,outside air too,but its stuck on windscreen by default as dave has said,fan switch dont work,and suction dont work either,so where should i start looking without ripping it all apart again,or can i manualy stop the outside air from coming in cause im getting a bit of engine bay fumes.

    FD Sunroof

    nice swap when everything is there all the p/s lines and trans for c4,interesting question is was the FD available in a carby crossflow ,i know the zj had quite a few 250s put in them.
