Hi Paul Danner my name is Jason Joachim, I am a level 3 JLR technician. I have a vehicle Jaguar XJ 1998 V8 Supercharge good cranking but not starting. When I received the vehicle it was getting start but no power because the fuel pump was not original and it was modified. I replaced the fuel pump and filter but still couldn't start the vehicle. Then I checked the fuel pressure it was 6 to 7 bars, spark plug was wet with fuel and the engine was flooded with fuel. After that I replaced the fuel regulator valve and injectors but the no benefit. Note: the vehicle is starts for couple of seconds.
So please advise me what should I do to fix this issue Thanks.

High Joachim.
Is 6 - 7 bar the specificated pressure?
That sounds to much for me.

Just a thought, is the fuel return to the tank clear not blocked off?
