1990 Jaguar XJ6 car driving slow
Engine Performance problem
1990 Jaguar XJ6 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 72,000 miles
I have a 1990 Jaguar car. Recently I just got gas at a new place and the car would just stop everytime I would stop at a red light. Then when you go up a hill the car has very little power as you go up the hill. This car is not driven very much at all and when it is maybe 2-3 miles a day. It starts just fine no light indicaters come on
