The Jensen Owners' Club

https://youtu.be/8eHLmnVW2rc Just saw this video on Youtube about electric classic car conversion and in the last minute he mentions there are 2 Jensens coming in this year for a conversion to rip out the engine and put in an electric package. Just curious, are the owners on this forum? :D Not my cu...

I second that. Now working on a car that was driving but has a leaking engine, leaking tranny, leaking steering rack and PAS pump. Also steering rods are shot and upper plus lower ball joints have has their best time. The lower ball joints are party missing their rubber caps. Unbelievable... All bei...

You can put us on the list as well.

I've had a great weekend in Saxony. Lots of driving but meeting and talking with fellow petrolheads was the best part. Very well organized by Joerg and Jens. The weather could have been better but also a lot worse. Next time in a Jensen again, I hope. However, the TVR Cerbera did very well in German...

I forgot where I sourced my crimping tool but it was no more than 20 euros. But a good set of pliers or a monkey wrench will do.

Did you try Appleyards for a set of leads? Or does he only have premade ones?

I'll be driving off tomorrow morning from home to Dresden.
Weapon of choice: TVR Cerbera.

Looking forward to see you all there. And maybe some of you along the road!?!

Ahhh Corsica, I love Corsica! Beautiful island.

Looking good!

What stuff did you spray on first? It does look like Lizardskin (http://www.lizardskin.com/car-ceramic-insulation.html).

There is no relation between badge and engine size anymore for most makes. And engines are rebadged and swapped between manufacturers very often nowadays. But wasn't this common practice in the past as well? I don't think much has changed. However, we're now returning to smaller sized engines. 800cc...

In my opinion a higher octane number will help to lower to temperature in the combustion chamber. And these modern fuels almost evaporate before it reaches the carburettor. Another interesting thing is that the high octane fuel does not contain ethanol. Maybe this explains the better combustion. At ...

Looks like a sustainable solution.

Well, count me in!
