I have a 90 model 4.0 L auto Limited XJ....its stock, for now, I love this car, and lately it makes this odd and weird thing that makes me C R A Z Y .....
ok.... Every time i start it i works diferently!!!...what i mean is :.... lets begin from idle... it may hold a normal and steady idle or it can do like it rumbles and almost dies...like 200 revs....
and if i give it some pedal...it starts to blow and bang... in the filter box...
If i stop the engine and re - turn the ignition key it may work ok...or the oposite....
Ok ...when driving now...in Overdriveor any other gear.....the car can go normaly even for more that 500kms if i dont restart it.. but if i do.....hell comes... it blows...bangs..and cuts off..more in lower revs.. and it only cleans... and runs good in higher...(imagine me in raffic lights..or in trafic generaly..) i have to to put it in Neutral so i rev it up and the engine dont dies...
What i checked till now....is the TPS, the knock sensor, the other litle barel near the tps....i checked for presure leaks...(excuse my english), and now its time to check the catalyst and fuel filter....
Any thoughs???
