Why is there 2 fuel filter part #? And which one do I use?
JAGUAR OEM 98-09 XJ8-Fuel Filter C2C35417 | eBay
JAGUAR OEM 98-03 XJ8 4.0L-V8 Fuel System-Fuel Filter NJB6091AA | eBay

 

jaguar classic parts show the C2C3 one as the most recent one, but as NLA.

The second part is the fuel pump strainer that attaches onto the fuel pump inside the gas tank.

I just bought an acdelco fuel filter off RA, along with a denso pump and strainer kit. Don't expect any issues from either, though looking online the OEM fuel filter looks to be about the same cost as an aftermarket one.

 

Alright, Thank You!

 

Jagbits one of the forum sponsors list the below part number for the fuel filter

FUEL FILTER
Part #: NMD6091AC-OE
FUEL FILTER, FITS 1991-1997 XJ6 FROM VIN 629286, ALL XJ8 1997-2003 XK8 UP TO VIN A30645, AND 1992-1996 XJS. Replaces NMD6091AB CBC7083

 

The OE is a GM / Delco filter

 

Hi yeldogt,

Can you give me any documentation of GM/ACDelco as the OEM of the X308 oil filters? I'd like to add this to my list of Jaguar OEMs if it can be documented. So far the oil filter OEMs I've confirmed for Ford-era Jaguars include Mann, Valeo, Filtrauto, and possibly Mahle. Any documentation you can point me to would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Don

 

Will have to ask my independent. When the car was diagnosed as needing fuel pumps. I ordered the parts from Jaguar -- including the fuel filter.

My independent had the car on the lift when I dropped the parts off -- he mentioned that the filter was a common GM part. Thought very odd -- sure enough I looked up .. GM/ Delco. This is a car I purchased new -- never replaced unless dealer did it for some reason under warranty -- I have no record of it being done.

Jag did use "off the shelf parts" when they could. Not huge surprise for a common part. Have been a life long Jaguar owner -- but the fuel filter is not an often replaced part .. my memory is not that good!

GM was the surprise .. was thinking it should be Ford .. but Jaguar had a long history with GM .. the transmissions in the earlier cars being GM units .. they used GM Europe for some other parts.

 

So it was the fuel filter that is a GM part rather than the oil filter? That would make more sense to me.
