A good chance that your car does NOT have one. OBDll was not required by law until 1996.
Some manufacturers had there own systems before then.
I found the following web reference:

"Sorry fellas, the 1989 XJS has no onboard diagnostics at all. It only has a red feedback monitor hookup [with a blanking cap] back near the fueling ECU in the boot. It was used for mixture setup and that's pretty much it.
The trip computer fault code readout didn't arrive until 1992."
The trip commuter readout he refers was a way to get codes (after certain steps taken) to show up in the trip computer display.
For OBDll compliant cars .... the port has to be within 3 feet of the driver with full access .... usually under the dash

SOURCE: 1989 jaguar xjs v12 fuel mixture

Chances are the coolant temperature sensor or its wiring have failed, or the vacuum line to the MAP sensor is leaky or broken (I believe the V12 in '89 guise uses MAP sensors). The MAP sensor measures Manifold Absolute Pressure. Along with this pressure the ECU looks at engine RPM. It also measures air temperature. Knowing pressure and temperature we know density, and knowing engine speed tells us how much volume of air is going through the engine. All of this together is computed into air mass and is used to calculate how much fuel mass should be admitted. If the vacuum line is broken, the ECU reads less vacuum and produces rich mixture thinking that the engine is under high load.

SOURCE: No oil pressure what so ever in v12 jaguar

have you tried reversing the pipes and see if that makes any difference other than that there must be a pressure difference between the two pumps try priming the filter with oil before starting.

Jaguar xjs 1995 v12 engine lack of power

I would start with a tune up, then isolate any symptoms other than lack of power if it persists, like rough idle, sputtering, jerking, engine trouble codes, etc.
