Re: 90 XJ Won't start low (15psi) fuel pressure
I should have said it ran great when I parked it, I haven't done
anything with the distributor, just changed the cap and rotor. The #1
is marked on the cap and is in the same position as the book it's just
the screws that are in a different position. I have to admit that when
it's turning over it does sound like the plug wires are wrong but I
have double checked them and when I replaced them it was one at a time.
Thanks for the reply

Re: 90 XJ Won't start low (15psi) fuel pressure
Strange....
I would be pulling plug #1 to see if it is indeed at top dead center
when the rotor is pointing to that #1 on the cap.
I have a funny feeling someone has managed to clock the distributor off
a bit.....

Re: 90 XJ Won't start low (15psi) fuel pressure
Dave, the injectors are pretty quiet, I did the screwdriver to the
thumb in the ear and only heard some faint tapping, a few of them i'm
not sure if I heard anything. I think I will try some tubing to the ear
tomorrow I have a blue spark from the coil, white spark at plugs. I
think it sounds like a few plug wires are switched when cranking, no
backfire but it just doesn't sound quite right. The wires are all in
the right place, do you think it could have jumped time?
