[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] FW: Timing Proceedure and Fuel Rail Damper
---------- From: Jim Campbell[SMTP:jcamp@ionet.net] Sent: Sunday, February 09, 1997 7:30 PM To: 'Jaguar Mailing List' Subject: Timing Proceedure and Fuel Rail Damper I have two questions I could sure use some experience on. #1 My maintenance manual for my 1985 XJ6 says the engine timing should be set to 17 BTDC. I checked mine and it was running at around 24 (ouch). The sticker on the underside of the bonnet said to block the vacumn advance line before setting the timing. My big question is my 85 XJ6 has electronic fuel injection and there is not vacumn advance line on the distributer. What am I missing here? Besides the fun of getting at the nut to loosen the distributer. #2 I saw mention in a previous note about a "pressure damper" for the fuel rail on an XJ40 to quiet a clicking sound. My XJ6 has this sound and I was wondering if the 85 XJ6 also has a pressure damper for the fuel rail. If I can resolve this 'ticking' noise my Jag would really be quiet indeed. If have already replaced the fuel pressure valve at the front of the fuel rail. Thanks for the help, this site is a great source of info.
