Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Right fuel tank is leaking on 1985 jaguar xj6. when fuel filler cap was removed, lots of pressure inside gas tank was relieved, and rate of fuel leak slowed, but did not stop. there is a recall on the 1995 jaguar xjs for a seemingly identical problem, recall campaign 90v123000. i suspect that the xj6 has the same problem. i am owner of an independent service facility, and this report is for a car owned by a customer. car owner tells me that he has had chronic fuel system problems with the vehicle, and has previously replaced the left fuel tank on the vehicle to repair a leak. look at http://www.jcna.com/forums/view.php?vfnum=150&vthread=1732 for a brief thread about another xj6 with a similar problem. *jb |
