Throttle Spindle Shaft rubber bushes
I have noticed a little inconsistency in the tickover of my recently acquired 1994 DD6 and was reading through the Jaguar Monthly XJ40 Engineering bookazine and whilst reading the ‘XJ40 V12 Buying & Servicing’ article spotted a mention of ‘incorrect throttle adjustment’ and as I am not happy about the tickover on mine I read further and it says ‘Check also the rubber bushes on the butterfly spindle shafts’. So I did and I noticed straight away a load of play, no sign of a bush on the nearside plus what looks like the remnants of a ‘bush’ on the offside. I went to the appropriate page on the Jaguar parts website (https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.../brand/jaguar/) but it doesn’t show any bush, although it does show a circlip which mine hasn’t got! I’ve also checked the equivalent illustration on the XJ81 and S3 XJ12 pages which are identical to the X300 one. So, no part numbers - I don't particularly want to get into making custom bushes as I'm sure someone sells them. Any advice or comments or name of supplier/part number.
Thanks |
What most commonly fails, and I what I suspect you're asking for, is part number C34388, Item #24 in this illustration

Nice find Doug, Master of All Jaguar Needs!
An important little bush indeed. That's why they are 5 quid apiece and can only be had in packs of 5! It's good to have spares, right? I need some too, I have a side with a piece of rubber hose in a supporting role. I think it's the "nearside" one. Robert, be sure to get the linkages correct so they open equally. If not you'll get a MAP sensor code due to the mismatch. That also indicates that one bank is working harder than the other. What is this "2004 X305" you refer to in your signature? |
Hi Richard
oops bit of a typo in the signature - it's a 1994!! Thanks Robert |
