Classic car technician Jonn has continued his work on our 1970 Jaguar E-Type Series 2. This time he has been looking at the cooling system. Jonn fitted the vacuum tool and used it to refill the system.
When the car was run up to temperature, the radiator was found to be weeping. This was removed ready for a new one to be fitted. Mounts were fitted to the new radiator. The offside mount needed to be modified to make sure it cleared the bottom outlet. Once this was done, Jonn fitted the fan switch to the new radiator – this also needed a modified earth wire.
The system was vacuum filled again and, this time, the vacuum was not lost. The fans are now running as intended with no leaks found.
