Now that i have some money in my pocket im sorting the kinks out on the XJ i had to buy in a pinch last year.. did a fuel module, new CTS, replaced the "cold air" retrofit with a stock box and put in a CAT/O2 sensor because the PO removed both. Now im learning as i go, this is the first vehicle ive ever worked on.. I also plan to do a piece by piece lift and etc down the road but priority 1 is getting her back to running right.
Now to the problem at hand, on a cold start, it will Misfire/stutter maybe 5 or 6 turns of the crank, so like 3 or 4 seconds? and if i dont let it warm up and go to drive away, it will do it sporadically until shes warm. Now i think i have a leaky injector (probably more than 1). I still have an overheating problem but only when its been at low RPMs for a long time (driving downtown for a half hour she gets super hot) thats probably a fan clutch or bad waterpump.
could it be that im getting heat soak and theres no liquid gas in an injector until it cycles out? Also it JUST started doing it after i got a CAT and 02 sensor in the back, maybe the #1 02 is starting to go?
lots to digest here but i appreciate the help, any similar stories?
