I have a 1986 jag xj6, 4.2L. Theirs a problem with idle. You start the car everything ok. But 2 or 3 minutes later it starts to go down. If you run the car for about 25 mts, idle goes down until it dies. I´ve check almost everything and change everything, until I bought a multimeter. When I checked the voltage coming from ecu to tps, there are only 2 wires on the terminal. One sends me 12 volts, the other with ignition on, sends me something strange, 0.100, 0300, 0.500 and then repeats the cycle. Same thing with coolant sensor, 12 volts in one the other is a ground that fluctuates. Fuel injectores have some 12 volts other 11.4 etc. Really strange things that i havent seen in other cars with EFI system. Can someone please help me, i need the voltage send from the ecu to every sensor, coolant, throttle sensor, AFM, fuel injectors. Please help me cause Im going crazy and i love my car.

Welcome to the forum Comarpe,
As translator pointed out this section is for introductions, I've moved your discussion with Doug over to the XJ6 section you can find it here https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=49515
I expect you will attract more response to your problem there.
