Found the wife a beautiful used XJ today. 1989, 76k, automatic, 4.0L, cream outside with tan cloth, clean interior & body, new(tires, radiator, cap & rotor),did I mention it has a 44. all for $600
On to the problem:
Tried starting it, it won't turn over. Checked the wires, coil wire at cap was not snapped on. Tried starting again, same, won't turn over. Pulled dip stick and coil wire off the cap. Stuck dipstick inside the coild wire, and had friend start it, no spark. I was told the XJ was running great just 24hours ago, by someone not in any part of the sale.
Bad coil? what else could it be?
Thanks,
