Yup I did it again! I picked up a 93 white xj6.
The guy wanted 900, I got it for 500
163k on the odometer, but the engine has been rebuilt. I had it flat-bedded to my place because it wouldn't start. I put a new CPS, cap, rotor and plugs. Boom started right up. Very strong motor. It squealed like mad, I changed all 3 belts and to their proper settings, squeals gone. Those adjusting brackets were frozen rust. What a job. I have some electrical issues, will be posting those finds and fixes. Wish I could stream live video here.

Good find, and cheap enough as well.
