How to troubleshoot the Jaguar XJ-S electronic fuel injection?
If you wish to understand or troubleshoot the Jaguar XJ-S electronic fuel injection system, it is highly recommended that you obtain a copy of “Understanding Electronic Fuel Injection, Ignition and Engine Management ” by Roger Bywater and available from AJ6 Engineering.
What to do if your Jaguar XJ6 won’t start?
If your XJ6 or XJ12 won’t start, grab your voltmeter and follow this checklist. Covers checking spark plugs, coil, wires and distributor cap, ballast resistor, amplifier and distributor pick-up, fuel supply, fuel pump and relay, air flow meter, fuel injectors and ECU.
Where is the fuel injector located in a diesel engine?
In modern common rail diesel engines, fuel pressures can be over 25,000 psi. Because the injector is seated in the top of the engine cylinder, it is constantly exposed to heat and pressure. This increases the chances of failure over time. Why Causes a Bad Fuel injector? A fuel injector will usually only fail in one of two ways.
How to troubleshoot the fuel pump on a Jaguar?
Remove the relay plug-in socket and determine which terminal cavity corresponds to the white/green wire. This wire goes right to the fuel pump. Using your jumper wire apply 12 volts to this wire for just a moment (you are bypassing the somewhat tricky control portion of this circuit).

Where is the fuel supply hose on a Jaguar?
Disconnect fuel supply hose at the fuel rail (at the rear of later “straight rail” cars and at the bottom of the early “loop style” rails). Some fuel may spill, have rags and container handy. A properly operating pump will produce about 34 PSI so, again, be ready ! Position fuel hose so fuel will flow into the container.
Where is the transmission on a Jaguar XJ6?
Transmissions are a four-speed automatic equipped with a lock-up torque converter. The transmission is mounted to the back of the engine, and power is transmitted to the fully independent rear axle through a two-piece propshaft.
