Default 98 XK8 Fuel Injector Question

It's about time to replace the fuel injectors on my 98 XK8.

Prior to doing so, I'd like to know as much as possible about the entire procedure.
(BTW, can they be replaced without taking off the intake manifold?)

I've looked all over the web - but am having trouble locating diagrams of the system, videos etc

Any help would be greatly appreciate!

Thanks so much!
Ron

Welcome to the Forums.

No answer, but the XK8 Tech Section will know.

I have never replaced any injector in any Jag forever, maybe the XK is different, doubt it.

Welcome to the forum Ron,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I know you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR forum 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.

Information like this is covered in the factory Workshop Manual - JTIS (Jaguar Technical Information System). Attached is the relevant section for fuel injector removal and replacement.

You can download JTIS (free) from the links this thread:


https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/g...rchives-65926/

A less detailed PDF version is available for download in the XK8/XKR FAQ's thread:

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...ts-data-29800/

See the section WORKSHOP MANUALS - PDF Format for download links.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
