Please refer to the cars for sale section for further details. Thank you to all the members who have offered advice.

Hi Barry, A few years ago, my V6 refused to start. I called out the AA and he got the car started using a can of spray called ‘Easy Start”, he got the car going. After that I bought a can and used it several times to start the car by spraying it into the air intake, whilst turning the ignition key. https://www.holtsauto.com/holts/supp...diesel-engine/. I can’t remember why it wouldn’t start, but will search my posts to find out.

The AA chap went onto to clean my engine and he polished up my alternator. He told me how once a month, he takes the engine out of his XJS to clean everything. He struck me for being an enthusiast and a very nice man.
