Crank NO START When Motor Warm/Hot .... CPS????
Ok i believe I am on the right part but need a little more information.
Drive the 1995 XJ 5 miles or so, park it and it will NOT RESTART.
Let it sit until bone cold and it starts.
Has not stalled at all while driving.
DONE SO FAR -----
Changed ignition coil during NO RESTART period and still no restart.
UP NEXT -----
Thinking the CPS might be the culprit. Last time I had a CPS go bad it would randomly stall but restart.
Since the symptoms are different I am asking if there is anything else I should look at ??????
THANKS

Ok so it's not the 98Gc in your sig, gotcha. Ignition coils last forever and usually when a CPS fails it's for good. Fuel smell may still be present with a defective pump.
Whats the condition of the wiring, have you checked the bulkhead connector for green goo?

When the CPS failed on this 1995 XJ years ago it did not fail and stay failed.
It would at random times just stall .... and restart immediately.
At that time I replaced CPS and it has been fine since.
On a 1996 XJ I owned it stalled and stayed in that state .... crank, no start .... no spark. It was the coil.

Engine is COLD
Codes I saw were .....
1 2 Battery disconnected
5 4 <---- odd one because notes I read indicate this is for a TURBO engine only
5 5 END OF TEST

Well it is showing a 5 - 4 Code which indicates a fault related to CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
Camshaft Sensor is inside the distributor.
Ignition Coil has been ruled out by testing with a new coil.
I should add that on October 1 a new distributor was installed by a service center due to distributor breaking when passenger side motor mount bolts were broken in an accident.
The distributor and pickup sensor are most likely under warranty so I will contact the installing service center about that.
