Default Will not stay running to drive

My 2004 Jaguar VP XJ8 will not stay started to drive more than a block. For a while it would not start. I give it some time ( which I have found to work in the past) and it started but it cut off once I got on the road. Now it starts every time but trimmers. Has anyone had this issue?

With the limited info given. The first thought that comes to mind, is a plugged fuel filter. Hope thats it. If not give us a little more info to work with, maybe we can help. hope it helps.

Welcome to the forums anngellic,

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X350 forum. Members here with the same model will be able to help.

When you get a minute, please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some information about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see. In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.

Graham

Do you have any fault codes present? Is the EML on and is restricted performance showing on the display? Are there any other warning messages showing on the display?
