Default 1996 xjs 4l

Some time ago one of the members stated that he had made an injection wire harness.

Is this person selling these or was it a one time thing?

I would like to get a hold of him to discuss.

If you have any info please post

Thanks

I haven't made one, but I started making individual wire diagrams so I could do it. I just lost steam on the project, but recently did start picking it up again.

It's a lot of wire. I just measure out the wire needed for the injectors and coil packs. It was about 60' of wire for just the powered wire. I didn't even measure up the ground wire that makes up the other half of the connections.

a few of the wires in my harness are cracked and missing the shielding. I have taped and sealed with silicone to prevent any type of shorting.

I know very little about this kind of stuff but I am guessing this may be part of the reason for getting engine failure codes showing up...typically "engine misfire".

Even though the light comes on from time to time the car runs great!! I just drove up to Cleveland from Florida. Mileage was 24mpg wo/air conditioning and 21 w/air.

The person that did the original post regarding the harness had everything pretty much together including connectors. I believe he had all the part Nos. etc.

Hopefully someone can tell us both!!

Thanks

Are you looking for the entire ECU harness?

The EFI Harness is not something that can easily be rebuilt without affecting other wiring. What I have begun work on is the entire wiring harness that connects the ECU to all of the underhood sensors, including injectors, coils, oxygen sensors, EGR, coolant temp sensor, throttle potentiometer, air pump, etc.
