Default won't start fuel?

I have just got my 2001 XK8 out of the garage for summer and it started first time. I washed the car and cleaned the engine bay with a cloth. Since then the car has not started. The car turns over fast and will fire if I spray easy start into the inlet. I have had the car from new and it has only done 45,000 miles.has anyone any ideas?

Welcome to teh Forums.

I suggest a repost in the XK8 (X100) Tech Section for answers.

Good luck.

Welcome to the forums Simon,

Good to have you with us.I can see you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR forum with this question so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the UK & Eire Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
