Default Vacuum diagram XJ6C California car

Hello,

Maybe somebody has vacuum diagram for California 4.2 series 2? I’m trying to start the engine after long storage and want to fix unplugged/torn lines. Found this for UK spec:
Vacuum diagram for UK car
but it is not like mine. There is no thermostatic vacuum switch, vacuum for distributor is coming direct from manifold.


Find another diagram from SNG Barratt, looks more like mine, but my car has additional vacuum exits just behind front carburetor and I don't know where they connected.


Thermostatic switch has 4 ports. One port must be supply vacuum, others cut vacuum after warm up?

Wondering what those lines supply.


Best regards, Stan

What year is your car? 1975 doesn't need any of that and can be done away with... other wise here is what I've got from my catalogue. also the thermo

ported switch sometimes has a nipple that is blocked from the factory, probably for another application as they're pretty much universal.





hope this helps. good luck...

I got mine off ebay... I got the parts catalogue and the service manual. Actually I try and get as many different manuals as possible as some have a better way of doing things or explain it differently. I like the Haynes manuals as they're more compact and the needed information is easier to get to, good luck.
