Well first of all I will introduce myself.....My name is Earl and I am 34 years old and live in wisconsin.I do investment grade restoration for a living.I have had a great career and have restored and worked on many great cars including the only Tucker convertible,christine,many corvettes,and American rods and muscle cars.I recently did a repaint on a 1973 xke and bought my first Jaguar.I bought a 1999 xj8l That was hit front and back....The car has a misfire at idle and the restricted performance light is on.I scanned the car and came up with these codes-p1316-p1000-p0125-p0116-p0711-p0327-p1313-p0101-p0171-p0174. I have the car done and have drove it a little.... it runs pretty well for having this many codes....really I wouldnt be afraid to drive it anywhere....it feels good minus the misfire at idle and it doest run past 3000 rpm. I have not started doing any mechanical work to it yet...I wanted to get some good opinions before I started throwing sensors at it.I would be happy to give advise on paint proplems and some how to's on body work.To anyone who reads this......thank you for yor time and have a great day.
