Default New owner 1996 xj6 and a 1998 xj8!!

I am a 52 year old single mom who purchased a 1996 xj6 she ran beautifully until .my son hit a stone wall-yes he is fine but Jag hasn't been same. I just purchased two 1998 xj8's one just for parts(bad trans) and well now have n3 jaguars but not 1 is actually running!!! HELLO EVERYONE !! I am a you tube mechanic lol and have successfully put in 1.radiator 2. water pump and 3. crankshaft position sensor,my car will crank but will not kick over-- well I did get to kick over and ran for about 10 mins but engine was shaking shaking violently !!. I hope some experienced Jag owner can help me-I believe it will start if I pull piston number 1 and disconnect battery and cam shaft sensor and plug back in--which as soon as all rain here in PHILADELPHIA PA stops I intend to try this next!!!! Hello all and thanks for all your forums they are great!!!

Hello,
I'm sorry to read how your son wrecked your Jaguar. Shame on him!
Someone will be along shortly to direct you to the correct section where you can get help with all that Xj8 stuff, or just hang out and learn about your car(s).

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB,
