Even if some of us are on a quest to make it more fuel efficient, nobody buys an XJ for fuel economy...

I have lots of other reason for buying the XJ...

When I bought my first XJ the MPGs were a nice perk... of course, I was coming from a full size pickup that got at best 10 mpg.

Rotated and balanced my tires and had the rotors turned, as they were warped...

One of the wheels wouldn't balance out very well so I'll probably order another one...

Used the pinstripe removal rubber disk to get the glue remnants off the body from de-badging. Also "persuaded" my rear bumper a little to stop the squeaking against the Hatch.

That's what I do everyday to mine. Matter of fact that's what I'm doing in a few minutes.

Let it idle for 10 minutes and the coolant temperature was at 206° after the new radiator install.
