Classic/Antique Car Repair/1986 Jaguar XJ6 Fuel Transfer Switch

Expert: - 7/2/2008


Question
How hard is it to change this switch, where is it located, and can this prevent the car from starting?

Answer
I'm sorry, but I am a Model A guy and don't know a thing about the ag.  I don't know what a transfer switch does.  Maybe from one sode of the tank to the other.  If it does something like that, keep a high level of fuel and it should not matter.  Find a Jag car club and join it if you have to.  They would have all the answers.  If you can get a service manual for your car that would help you for this problem and future ones.
Good luck.
