old problem and XJS Rear Brakes



Well I'll start off with a trip to the dealer for a non start problem. We had 
been having this problem where the Jag would stumble at speed after a warm up 
period and stopping for any length of time. If left to sit for a few minutes 
it would run fine. The first symptom that it was going to mis behave was a 
sudden deceleration when letting up on the gas pedal just a little bit . I 
changed the fuel filter, cleaned out the sump, checked the fuel pump, checked 
for faulty wiring at the distributor and ignition amplifiers. 
Then I found a broken vacuum line between the fuel pressure switch and the 
fuel pressure regulator. Problem fixed, so I thought. one month of no problems 
and it does it again except this time it won't start. Took it to the dealer 
and they think it's the crank speed sensor, they didn't have one in stock so 
the next day they try to start it before replacing the crank speed sensor and 
it runs fine. 
So I thought while it is there I'll have them fix the air conditioner and the 
oil leaks and the dripping heater control valve. $3800. No leaks and good air 
but I don't know if it is going to act up again. 

I feel like spending more money so does anyone know  what  parts and part 
numbers are involved for converting the rear brakes to vented rotors?
