My original owner 1991 XJ started squealing a few weeks ago, I changed out the idler pulley and it still squealed. I couldn't tell exactly where it was coming from.. the AC or distributor, so I had it towed to the dealer.
It's been a several years since my favorite dealer saw the XJ... I also found out John the service writer passed away a few months ago. Nice old guy.. at first I thought he must have retired... then this young service writer told me the bad news. I hope John went peacefully.
Time sure flies when we get older... makes me stop and think about throwing the fishing poles in the back of the XJ and taking a day off from work.
anyway, back to the distributor... it cost me $350.
I had them install new wires... another $xxx.
It all came to $510.
Damn... I really love my XJ, but this is ridiculous.
