Gonna try this soon on my 97 xj6 its been idling rough and even stalls sometimes if i drive off too fast , mad annoying because it started happening after i took it to the shop
Yes same here, if i pulled orff too quick there was a stutter, it would pull away then feel if it was going to cut out then launch into rocket mode, all cleaned out and now it is smooove thanks to Jesse;)
@@XJJesse what about the XJR i cant seem to work my head around that. I want to replace the connector, tps and clean all the MAF etc? Thanks Jesse, you rock
Thanks for the great video! Any chance you could do one on the X300 sunroof mechanism? I rebuilt mine with parts from a U Pull, but I can only get it to work without the large headliner panel inserted. It works perfectly without it, but once I insert the big panel it jams up for some reason… I’m sure I’m not the only one that would appreciate that video, as it’s quite a common issue apparently!
video was perfect, but one thing is strange: I do the job, and first time I start the car, the idle was at 2000/2500 rpm, and I noticed it while getting out of a small parking... Finally I stop the car, then restart and idle was normal again. Had to try another time. perhaps just some cleaner staying on the sensor
I'm going to buy a 1996 x300 4.0 this week . Your clip are very interesting. I think it helps me to have a long time fun with the car. Thanks a lot from Germany
Yo any chance you could make a video of you just doing an overview of where all the wires go and plumbing goes trying to put a jaguar back together and my photos I took were not good enough and I'm struggling to find good photos to put mine back together
So it appear the throttle spring don't like the operation and now had no power to bring back the idle under 1000 rpm. Seems it's common issue on X300 cause jaguar change the spring reference. Could also come from the throttle plate that don't shut but I put some elastic to help the spring and no more problem; I had to find a new spring or add a turn to the existing one
I went through this process after I noticed it started bogging down at idle but now I’m having an issue where the rpm’s will drop even while doing 70 on the highway then immediately over revving without me giving it throttle. I’m thinking of replacing the 4th coil as it was misfiring but I’m also thinking it maybe a vacuum leak.. any suggestions or insight?
I would say just clean all the intake system, im doing jets overhaul and plugs next, i cleaned all the electrical connectors with contact cleaner before reinstalling them !
Hey XJ Jesse, I've got a 1996 XJ6, and there was a melted gasket on the throttle body, so I had to pop it off with a bit of force. Do I need to replace the gasket, or should it be fine to put the throttle body back on without it? I'd venture to say yes since yours seems to be fine without the gasket, but would appreciate your thoughts.
i need access to the Thtrottle body sensor to read out the wire voltates. Is it possible to access is somehow from under the car or do i really need to remove all that things ?
Got a question for you, I picked up a 96 XJ6 not running when I got it,, Now I have got it to run and I've driven it about 80 miles or so in different speeds but I can't clear the Cat, Air, Eva or EGR sensors, It also intermittently gets a misfire code, new coils new plugs new fuel filter I just drove it about another 80 miles & no check eng light no misfire so far but still have the 4 sensor codes & since I'm in CA can't pass smog, would dirty Air sensor cause this????? Appreciate any advice
I had no idea these older XJ6 seem to have a really simple robust maintenance. Makes me excited to buy one as a second car as a somewhat hand car guy
I just bought myself a 95 xj6 today. This is the first video I watched of it.
Thanks to you just completed the air intake clean including MAF on my 27yr old xj6 x300 !
Next is jets overhaul !

Jesse, I like to see you removing the throttle body of the XJR.
Exactly what I need! The transmission light turned on on my XJ40 and they say to check the throttle position sensor.
Removing a throttle body on a XJ40 is a little bit different. I’ll try and make a video for it next week

Fantastic information, as usual, Jesse. Thanks for producing this video and sharing.
Great video! Thanks XJ Jesse. 👍
Great job! X300's are my favorite XJ's.
This was really great content. Well presented - no fluff just the way it's done but well explained. Super job.
Great channel!these cars are great to work on!

Salute to Homie I just changed my throttlebody this week
impressive job to film and edit, you thought about every details, really good job
New viewer have a 95 XJ6... Great Video's

Always excellent advice. Thank you my good sir!!!
You have to brush the teeth of your Jag once in a while :) Great video!
Excellent tips today!
Well demonstrated!
Even idiot-proof! 😂😂😂
Thank you Sir! Nice one 👍
Your camera work is great and your descriptions short and concise. Thank you!
Siblings toothbrush gives best results

🙏🏼🙏🏼 oh sir thank you 🙌🏼
did you do a video for the X300 XJR version of this car?
Do you have a video on how to grease, or lubricate, the rear end of the Jaguar X300?
...and lubricate the butterflyvalve swivelingpoints... ;)
I love how you said or your siblings toothbrush so casually lmao

Jesse my 1991 jaguar xj6 is showing transmission light once in a while . What to do
I went through this process after I noticed it started bogging down at idle but now I’m having an issue where the rpm’s will drop even while doing 70 on the highway then immediately over revving without me giving it throttle. I’m thinking of replacing the 4th coil as it was misfiring but I’m also thinking it maybe a vacuum leak.. any suggestions or insight?
What is the rubber part connected to the throttle, so I can order a new one
I’ve got a 97 Vanden Plas when I press the gas pedal it won’t accelerate would this be another cause of a sensor failure or it being dirty
I would say just clean all the intake system, im doing jets overhaul and plugs next, i cleaned all the electrical connectors with contact cleaner before reinstalling them !

?.... Someone is selling a a 94 Xj6 for under $1000, about 160,000 miles. Good investment?
Just depends what condition, just picked me up a 97 xj6 for 3k 93k miles
It's not the worst thing. Just make sure it's not rusty underneath.
Would the the mass air flow sensor be the same as the iac?
You’re looking for the “idle control valve”
At 5:55 I mention this part.
