List, I got a couple of problems with my '88 XJS V12. 1. Intermittent Speedo. I figured the that there are 5 possible causes for the problem: Speed itself, speedo transducer, Cruise control ECU, Trip computer, wiring. I disconnected the Cruise unit - same problem. when I tap the Y/W tach wire on the ground, the apeedo bounces. I guess that means that its the speedo transducer. I checked for 12V at Green wire right at the transducer connector. Question: is this a common problem with the transducer? To me it lookes like a simple wiring problem? 2. Idle little hesitation/shaking. OK while cruising. I figured the car needs a tune up: plugs, cap , rotor, fuel system adjustment, etc. Questions: Is this little hesitation/missing normal for a 10 y old. V12 XJS or should I have a mechanic look at it? What could be a reasonable price for a tune up? Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Val.
