I'am going to install the # 1, 3 and 5 coils in my jag. this weekend with Denso IT16 plugs.What other parts and gaskets do I need and any other parts should I do also to avoid any future problems. 2002 3.0.
Regards

 

Why only 1, 3 and 5? Might as well do all of them at the same time. It might prove to be detremental to your engine to only do half of it!

 

Engine seems to be runingok. Have a ck engine light, did a scan # 1 and # 3 problem, Will change the 3 hard ones + spark plugs.#2, 4 and 6 are easy. I can change them any time.

Well since you're doing it...why do it half a$$??
Anway, as far i know, just the gaskets (which can be re-used if careful) should be all unless something breaks...like the rubber lines or wires which tend to get brittle with age...

As for avoiding any future problems, that's a tough one...my advise is to avoid any and all trees that seem to pop up along the road.

 

You're good to go, but I suggest not doing it half a$$ like Racer said!

 

way too much half a$$ing going on round here...

 

Hi racerx82
I got all 6 coils, like you said. 6 dense spark plugs, valve cover gasket. What else should I replace, since I doing this job right? How about the lower breather elbo?

Sounds like you're good to go! Let us know how the car feels after you're done!

 

Will let you guys know how it runs. Just waiting on the parts to come in Tue. or Wed. Trying to do a lot of littleprojects, need to get one done. May get the lights done today maybe, if I can know what the best way to get the bulb out. One thing is for sure working on these cars is as bad as working on my 93 supercharged builtLt4Vett. The Jag is all new to me but I learn fast for my age. I can say one thing I really like this S type Jaguar. It has a lot of class.
