What kind of gas do you use in a X type?
For US specs cars I believe the recommendation is minimum of 91 octane (premium). has anyone else experimented with using 89 or 87? Yes. I have an 02′ 2.5 X-Type, with 47,000 miles. 80% of the time, I use 87 or 89 octane rated gasoline. It runs the same temp, and I get 30 mpg highway on trip, 24-26 mpg combined ( while not in sport mode ).
What should the octane level be on a JAG?
I just bought my 2004 Xtype 3.0 and the owners manual for US cars calls for 91 octane or higher. Anything less will not only void any warranty you may have, but it will start causing engine troubles. It might cost a little extra, but if you never have to see the repair bill on a jag, then it is worth it.
Where are the return valves on the XJ6?
The return valves are located in the rear wheel wells behind semi-rectangular sheet metal covers. Turn the key “on”, select the right tank, and using your test light check for voltage at the white/purple wire for each valve. Your light should show 12 volts at all three valves. Now, select the left tank and make the same voltage tests.
What causes gas to come out of the EVAP tank?
Some vehicles even have the fuel splash back out due to improper vent tube operation. This car repair article points out several things to look for when charcoal from an EVAP canister has broken loose and has entered the EVAP lines causing a blockage.

What should the tank pressure be on a Jaguar?
The tank pressure is pulled down to –2 Kpa (-20 mBar) for the 0.040 in test and -1.25 Kpa (-12.5 mBar) for the 0.020 in test.
What are the issues with the X type?
X-TYPE Issue: This bulletin provides diagnostic information for the vehicle fuel system. The following issues are addressed: Drivability/starting issues: 1. Fuel starvation. Loss of power at high engine demand, stumbling and stuttering during wide open throttle accelerations, preignition (detonation) at high engine speeds/loads. 2.
How does a fuel leak affect a Jaguar?
The pressure in the tank now begins to increase (again it is dependent upon the amount and type of fuel, the temperature, and the presence of a leak). A leak at this stage will have a significant effect on the rate of pressure rise.
