Hi can anyone help. I have a 99 xj8 fuel pump went bad I replaced it and the fuel filter (witch was clogged). Car starts but bogs when I step on the gas hard. Up until the fuel pump went bad the car ran beautiful.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks for your suggestion I actually figured out what it was. When I was putting in the fuel pump I did not undo the fuel lines under the tank. I was able to pull the tank out enough to get to the pump. In doing that it stretched out one of the lines wich has a plastic tube in the fuel hose. It stretched the plastic line inside that when I pushed the tank back the line was kinked and was not letting gas through. So note to anyone don't b lazy like me and not undo the fuel lines underneath the tank. They will stretch and kink. Thanks
