'88 XJ6 not starting help
 
Hi, I am new to the jag scene. I have a 88 Jaguar XJ6 which will not start. the engine turns and there is spark but not fuel. We even put power to the petrol pump but would still not start. I was wondering could anyone advise me to where the fuel cut-off switch is on this model if there is one? Apart from that we have no clue what to try next. any help would be much appreciated.

We need to move this to one of two sections; XJ40 or XJ6, please describe your tail pipes. Straight or curvey.

There is an inertia switch (fuel cut off) located in the drivers foot well... it has a reset button on top of it.

Also check your fuel pump relay.. it's in the array behind the passengers side knee bolster (below the glovebox)

After trying these two, if you still have a no start issue then it is possible that your fuel pump is kaput (stuffed) or maybe a clogged fuel filter or maybe something more sinister or simply you haven't got fuel in the tank?
