Hi Laurence,
The fine screened wire that joins to the ignition amp is absolutely critical.
It could also be seized injectors
The fuel strainer in the boot can clog up. (If blocked it tends to start OK but not rev).
The fuel pressure regulator can also give problems. Measure fuel pressure.
Kirby’s book is most helpful.
From the Jag-lovers XJS forum:
You need to check that there is continuity between the inner conductor and the correct pin on the connector back at the ECU, that there is no continuity between the inner connector and ground, and that the shielded wire is grounded at just one end. If there is continuity between the inner connector and the outer shield, or the inner connector and ground then the signal won’t make it to from the ignition amplifier to the ECU.
Hope this helps.

Hi Laurence,
I repaired the targa panel locking mechanism when I first bought the car over 23 years ago. The pin had pulled out of the sprung tab that locks the panel. Previous people had tried to weld it. My solution was to bend the rod slightly and then epoxy resin the rod in place. The kink in the rod gives you something for the epoxy to grip on, so the rod doesn’t just pull out. I avoided rapid epoxy as I always do.
Hope this helps.
