Re: Jag X-type Crank no start

Thanks Liteace. I would have done, except the amp clamp has not arrived yet but 20x attenuator has, I thought I set the s/w to 20x - but I see what you mean, if it was set correctly to 20x then that should be reading 180v not 9v, so perhaps my injectors are not firing after all.

Thanks!

FIXED: Jag X-type Crank no start

Hi all, enthusiastic amateur here. I acquired a 06 Jag x-type, manual with the 2L Diesel Duratorq engine in it (same as a MK3 Mondeo) as a PX spares/repairs from a local dealer.
