How do you fix missfire on cylinder 4 on 2001 s-type jaguar

1 Answer

If you have Individual COP Ignition Coils,then
replacing the bad coil or several coils, if necessary,
should resolve the issue with misfires

You can not just expect the PO304 code to be cylinder
number 4 with the misfire

It may be this time & it may not be,so you need to have it
checked with the proper test equipment

That said, if the car isn't drive in hot weather & at least
20 miles, they may not find the problem or just throw parts
at it, & take your money

Just a couple of things to keep in mind

Your car & some fords have similar issues, as ford
once owned & stole some jag technology.

SOURCE: Missfire on number 3 coil on 2001 S type Jaguar 3.0 V6 Sport

Check the igniter module.
I assume you have a ecu code telling you #3 coil is missfiring ?
If so also check the crankshaft angle sensor .
If it is not an error code do a compression test and check the injector.
Hope this helps

SOURCE: engine missfire

Get your local garage to put a scanner on the car. The early s-type used to suffer from ignition coil faults. If a fault has been hinted towards a specific coil then swap to a different cylinder and see if the fault follows wich will indicate a coil fault.

Has the vehicle had its spark plugs changed? every 70.000 miles as they tend to fail if left unchanged. Intake manifold requires removing to replace bank 1 plugs.

Also check the small rubber elbow on the end of the plastic beather pipe wich runs throught the intake manifold branches. Elbow is located at the rear of the engine

Hope that helps

1998 Jaguar XJ8 cylinder numerotation:
1234 right bank on the passenger's side, and 5678 left bank on the driver's side.
In other words cylinder five is the 1st one on the driver's side closest to the front of the belts.

SOURCE: I HAVE A 1996 JAGUAR XJ6 i AM SHOWING A MISSFIRING

Yes, definitely. I just had the same problem on my 97 xj6... car was misfiring, running very rough at idle. My last ignition coil was bad. I had it replaced and solved the problem. Try it yourself first. The repair shop wanted almost $400 to get a new coil and replace it for me. I found a coil at familycar.com for $57. I pulled one coil out and the boot was slightly melted at the end. Be very careful taking them out as nothing is cheap on our vehicles... Good luck!

My 2000 Jaguar S Type has the check engine light on, it flashes when I drive on the highway, and when I shut the car off it takes a long time to cool down. Also I put antifreeze in the car yesterday and...

Missfire is usually cause by a bad spark plug or plug wire.
Sometimes can be cause by bad or leak injector.

For coolant, you usually have to fill the system twice when filling. It fills once then while you burp the radiator hose and car is still running, it will slowly drain all fluid from radiator to engine block, when this happens, you then refill the radiator once again and it will be at the proper level.

Check for leaks. Check exhaust too see if you have very white smoke and check oil to see if there is antifreeze in it because this can mean a gasket leak, and that may also be why your cylinder is missing
