Why does your jaguar XJ8 say engine coolant low when it is full?
Found after removing and replacing the sensor and bottle still had error finally drained radiator and added correct coolant mixture in radiator, indicator went away. Appear I had a weak mixture of coolant and water in radiator, which kept giving me the "ENGINE COOLANT LOW' I guess it really was low in coolant.
because water pump isnot working properly.if it is with plastic propeler ,it is time to be replasment with new water pump.if not do dis as soon as possible ,next thing wich will become broken is termostat .
Also some times coolant sensor under the bottle where you fill coolant is not attached correctly or is not working.

Batteries should not be used in sealed containers. If the manufacturer put a vent hose on your battery get up, you should assume the air flow in the region is not sufficient to exhaust the explosive hydrogen and oxygen that are associated with charge and discharge.
To properly vent hydrogen isn't a big deal, you just need a way to move air.
Since you are not worried about the temperature of the battery, I would suggest a pair of tubes, and use the heat of the engine to push the air around (AKA up). One tube inside the engine bay, that connects to the bottom of the battery box. Another that connects to the top of the box, and goes directly outside. By exausting the fumes away from the hot engine, you also keep them from exploding on contact with such things as a manifold.
Here is an in depth discussion on Hydrogen Gas Venting from Battery Banks.

How can you locate a short on a brake light 1996 jag vanden plas?

Why is my 2001 jag xj8 engine light on?
The check engine light (service engine soon) comes on and stays on when a problem is detected by the self diagnosis system of your vehicle. Generally, the problem is in the emissions or something that is affecting the effectiveness of the emissions, but other causes can trigger the light to come on, too. To determine the cause, the vehicle will need to be taken to a parts store or a shop that has an OBD2 scanner, or for 1995 and earlier models, an OBD1 scanner, While a scanner will not give you the magic answer, it will give you a code that narrows down the problem area.
Your 1999 jag xj8 engine makes a tapping sound sometimes?
Could be tensioners cracking, or one maybe loose. Better do more research and get someones head under the hood!
It's most likely the hydraulic lifters. Over time the oil leaves deposits on lifter surfaces and it make them gummy. Sinthetic, mineral and additive oils will all do it. Short runs don't help either. Warm the oil, drain it, fill with flushing oil. Run it as per the flushing oil instructions, drain it, change the oil filter, refill with a quality oil that won't emulsify on short runs, and change it at regular intervals.How do you change the spark plugs in a Jaguar XJ8?
You have to remove the center strip on top the valve covers, then remove each "coil on plug" that is bolted into the valve cover, then used a rachet with a long extesion to get to them.
Where do you put the transmission fluid in a jaguar xj8?
On my 1999 XJ8 there is a hex screw just above the transmission pan on transmission case, on the passenger side toward the back end of the pan but an inch or two up.
When I took it out there was pressure in the system and it sprayed/leaked transmission fluid.

Where is the transmission fluid dipstick located on a 2004 xj8 jaguar?
There is NO dipstick for the transmission. I've been trying to find out how to check the fluid level due to a small leak. So far, I've heard the oil has to be at a certain temp, but no one will say what that is; It has to go in one of two Allen headed plugs, probably the higher one on the tail end of tranny since oil poured out of the lower one on the side. Then I've heard you have to have a computer hooked up to determine the correct fluid level while everything is at the correct temp. When I tried to put some of the $62 a liter fluid in the plug on the tail end, it ran out as fast as I put it in, indicating that there may be a check valve which would make me you might have to put fluid in under pressure and that the fluid level may actually be above the plug! I'm still trying to find out answers to my questions, but the answer to your question is there is NO dipstick!

To start the Jag, is pretty simple...
