I joined back when I was shopping for a Jaguar but never got one and kinda disappeared. But I am back and now have a 1995 XJ6 British Racing Green Vanden Plas. Unfortunately due to a dead battery and having to jump start it, the lady was able to hide the fact it is a hard startin kitty! So tomorrow I call the shop she use to take it too. Only been able to drive it a little. It runs great once it is started, but getting there is not easy lol It needs some work, but I expected that, only paid 1600 for it. I do have to say the time I have driven it, I love it!!

Welcome back to the forum Katt Marrs,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Save yourself a lot of grief by fitting a new battery a.s.a.p. Jump starting a Jaguar the wrong way can easily damage sensitive electrical components.

The battery, turns out, is fine. I think she ran it dead trying to start it. I talked to the Jaguar mechanic she recommended today and I am taking it in tomorrow. With luck it will be fixed and not kill my pocket book lol

 

Well got a call from the shop today. It is the fuel pump. 600 total, ugh. Good thing I love Jaguars.

 

Unusual. A failing fuel pump normally delivers reduced pressure before stopping completely.

Well lets hope he is right, because I am tapped out after that repair job.

 

Hope so. It's fuel tank out to replace the pump (or pumps on the SC) which is a major piece of work.

Keep us posted.
