ignition coils possibly out in more than one cylinder car will try to start but sparkplugs will not ignite fuel. Go to any auto parts store and buy a code reader. More than likely your car has already stored some codes in it's memory. This tool will save you hundreds of dollars in the long run if you expect to keep your jag and can do some of the work yourself. The car must be running in order to get any codes so hopefully it already stored them. I'm talking from experience. It's the best investment I ever had. It my very well tell you whats wrong. Hope this helped Bud Sisto. P.S. If you need replacement coils check out Ebay first as the retail coils are $175 at their cheapest, but I found three used ones for $90 and they work just fine. they are for sale there quite often.
