So, I went online looking for a daily driver (DIY radiator repair has my Nitro blowing occasional while smoke) and ended up buying a Jaguar in impound.

Mixed information is coming through to me. Is it actually a XJ40? Will she have the dreaded SLSi hear is impossible to repair. Time will tell as start working on her today.

Any advice on starting these guys after a long rest would be helpful!

She ran when the last owner was arrested (poor guy). I'm hoping fuel.stabizer and a jump gets her 260miles home to Houston. Fingers crossed!

 

Welcome to the forums Willxj6,

That IS an XJ40. It's the factory code for the 1986 - 1994 XJ6.
