i got a 00 xj with 11000k.. it been running ruff after a hot soak.. i go for a trail run and shut it off start it up a few minuts later and is runs badd for a few munits.. kinda like its overfueled... changed the plugs in the summer and airfilter.. been running bad all summer... there is no engine light on. tryed some injector cleaner.. pulled plugs all look good.. anysuggestions..?? and its getting poor gas milage..
 
The heat sometimes causes the fuel in the #3 injector to vaporize and that causes the rough start. That's what it was on my 01 XJ. There is a Factory Service Bulletin on this.
 
my 01 does the same thing, Ive learned to live with it. I also ripped out all that foil junk under the injectors and it doesnt do it as much.
