Known issues on the 1999 XJR. One recall is on federal record for this model year, and it covers the gasoline fuel system. Certain replacement fuel filters, Fram brand name P/N G3727, manufactured from October 18, 2005 through March 21, 2006, were built with a connector that was not manufactured to Honeywell's specification, so the O-ring may not seat correctly on the fuel line. That condition may cause an inadequate seal at the connection, potentially leading to a fuel leak, and in the presence of an ignition source a fire could occur. Owners have logged 6 complaints for the year.
Whether you are tracing a fuel smell back to a filter connection or working through the service intervals on the supercharged 4.0L V8, the procedure and the specification you work to are the ones Jaguar set for this 1999 XJR.
