Default 1994 jaguar xjs 4.0 Idling then losses power, help

Hey guys got my first jaguar xjs . I’ve owned 2 Vander plas previously. I bought a 1994 jaguar xjs 4.0 it had been mostly garaged for 5 years
I drove it for about 30 miles. I came to a stop , cranked the car back up about 10 minutes after but it was stalling as if gas wasn’t pushing through or there was a slight misfire mufflersh sound. I have to keep kicking the gas peddle for it to stay. It I’ll remain on and then shut off again.

ive changed:
gas filter
gas pump
cleaned MAF sensor
and Throttle body

i plan on buying a new MAF sensor and idle valve hoping this sorts things out.

any advice or leads help, I’m happy to send videos or photos . Cars a beauty otherwise.

Welcome to the forums Justin,

Good to have you with us.

I can see you've already found your way to the XJS forum with this question so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the US Western Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/western-us-ak-ca-nv-ut-hi-wa-id-38/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
