No start
Hello guys, here's my problem..
It's my 96 xj6 and I'm having problems getting it started if it even starts at all as of late..
When I turn it over if it doesn't fire right on up it won't start at all. The only way I found to start it is to disconnect the fuel line away from the rail and amazingly it'll start that way. I found this out when I was checking to see if I was getting fuel to the injectors.. But once I connect the line again it just turns over but no start.
Yesterday as I was stranded at the store I loosened the line and started the car and quickly tightened the line trying to stop the spraying everywhere needless to say. But after it's started it runs fine as if nothing is wrong.
It is throwing an 0118 code and I've changed the sensor but the code keeps reappearing..
Has anyone ever had this problem and/or can help..?

Intriguing... Something such as rust or fuel contaminants may be blocking the fuel rail? Back tracking a little, has the car been sitting long in the open, or were there any other symptoms and recent repairs? Can't figure how DTC 1108 is related to the problem you described.

For a cheap and easy try , try swapping the fuel pump relay with the rear window defrost relay as it might be intermittent .
For a chance that it's a weak spark different then control or timing check the condition of the White / Pink wire in the Papa Indy 1 connector position 4 . All 6 plugs get their power though this one wire as it goes through this often corroded connector located below the washer fluid fill cap .

ok guys I found that the negative wire on the temp sensor per the 0118 code was broken and I have since reconnected it. I cleared the code and I've been driving all day to see if that indeed was the problem.. And as of now it seems that everything is back to normal. Normal start up with no hesitation..
