DISASTER STRIKES: The FIRST Drive Of My Jag F-Type Goes VERY Wrong

- I bought a 2014 Jaguar F-Type S that had been sitting abandoned in a tree row for the last year. The 3.0 V6 was questionable at best and when I got to the shop it actually started. Now I've replaced the engine and it's time to start it up and take it for the first drive... the first drive didn't go as planned, now I'm more worried than ever I might be getting a 4th engine for this car!

"Broke my heart Jag." Jaguar ownership summed up in a single sentence.
He should use that line for a new merch.
right on brother
Welcome to Jag.
I've never had my heart broken by a Jag, and I never will.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH if you can afford the maintenance these cars have soul compared to reliable beaters.
If I am not mistaken, you mentioned the car was tuned with pulley from VAP on the original motor. My guess might be if you didn't reinstall the VAP pulley from the original motor (and it didn't look like you did) if the ECU is running the tune file on a motor without the pulleys, this could account for some of the issues you are having. Have you tried to contact VAP to see if you could get the original ECU file and flash that back or did you transfer over the pulleys?
Okay, but that look on your face when you first started the car. Priceless.
Happy mixed with confusion; followed by surprise mixed with happy again 🤭
Fantastic! I never expected it to behave from word go, but doesn't look like there is too much wrong, and given the complexity of the job I'd be surprised if there wasn't some glitch or another. Hope you get all "faults" cleared soonest. Already looking forward to tomorrow mornings "coffee".
Bet the Lambda/02 sensor(s) are contaminated with coolant. Had exactly the same with my DMC when I replaced blown head gaskets.
I’m sure you’ll get it figured out pretty soon. Great to see if driving at least.👍
You'll figure it out, you always do. This kind of reminds me of my short stint with an 1988 Mercedes 560 SEL sedan -- amazing and horrifying all at once!
JR: “There’s a good chance something just came unplugged”
Jaguar: muahahahaha
What a beautiful car it is. And it’s even not detailed by the detaildudes! Small misfires should be an connector or something. It would be special when is was 100% the first time, but kinda unbelievable. This is normal. Tomorrow is the real great day!
Power steering isn't heavy, you've just have lost all your steering strengh with the self driving car.
Saw a black Jaguar F-Type by my house this weekend and I immediately thought of yours, JR!
You do a fantastic job of making the scary seem relatively simple 👏
Even you can achieve greatness my friend
JLR never fails to fail! That is a well-deserve reputation they earned.
its an unfair reputation, modern cars are complicated, any new car with a supercharger will be like this, yet people blame jaguar for everything
@@h7pubg Good thing Jag & Land Rover have had it for how many decades? Meanwhile, Lexus (which started in about 1990-1991) have seemed to built cars with a pretty stellular reputation.
Most of it is caused from being cheap and overly gimmicky.
@@olikat8 lexus reliability in modern cars is nothing like it was in the 90s and early 00s, 2010s+ cars became overly complicated, the most recent jaguar xk (2007-15) matched lexus reliability in consumer ratings. lucas electrics is what made jaguars reliability reputation in the 80s and before, on modern jags their wires are not magically haunted or anything different than any other cars wiring. stupid internet regurgitation. I would not buy a jag from tata ownership and on however, their quality dropped to that of other modern high end cars.
@@h7pubg oh, I'm sure with what I've read about pre-pandemic owner protests in China at one of the HQ's there...
keep a 720s running...the car IS the most inexpensive cost
JR quote “ water pump is a 20 minute job”. Please be careful kiddies 3 1/2 hours later water pump done.
That's why I love LS engines... 6 bolts, clean the surface, refill the coolant! 💯
Lovely car, concidering how much work you had to do to the Jag to get it running I would say it is a good result.
There is a standing rule with Jaguar which has been there for decades. You must buy 2, ..... One to drive, while the other one is in the shop!
I feel your pain. Keep going - it was working when it left the factory!
Omg i would be crying if I was you after all the money and Time spent on this jaguar and for something still be wrong really hope it's something simple and sure you will sort it out, my favourite cars are jaguars i used to own a 1986 xj6 series 3 and had it about 4 year and i was lucky i had no problem with it, looking forward to seeing your next post about the jaguar running correctly fingers crossed
Love it, the Jag is putting up a good fight but I know JR will prevail!
JR I’m so glad for you that it’s nearly there. A bit disappointing. But you have the technology you’ll get it right 😉

Those nasty, wide rims 👍 will have some effect on steering. Toe them nearly parallel, and barely toe out.
If those oxygen sensors are not new, they are trashed, and finding a lean or rich mix code or value will lead the way, after all new sensors.
I thought it's common practice to have a light toe in?
Your girlfriend thought you forgetting to engage the shaft in the pump was pretty funny. She gets your humor.
Yes she does, at least it was a dumb/easy fix 😂
Steering on my 2017 F Type is not heavy in standard running mode, there is more weight when it is in dynamic mode. Having said that Jag had switched to electric PAS by2017. Also worth being careful when using an OBD reader. After using mine and disconnecting the car continued to run a routine and the systems would not go fully into sleep mode when the car was locked, until I disconnected the battery for a couple of minutes.
Reminds me of my work as a coder. You think you get something running and then, WHAM, a big crash. Def feel like you when you say you've done enough for one day. Come back fresh and state the positives, there is always some progress, you got some things fixed, it's getting closer.
Love hearing the Jag come to life again! That's the sound I've come to love! You'll figure out the last little snags and have a really fun car. As far as the power steering goes, that's a bit of a pain to get right, are you sure it's bled properly?
7:40 "Luckily it's like a 20iniute job when it's all said and done" 🤣🤣🤣 sure Jr 20 minute job.
I have an XKR. When my battery was dead from under-use and I had to jumpstart, the power steering got super heavy for some reason. Fixed itself once it got more charged and I started it again. I dunno if it could be the case for you, or something like it, but that was my experience! 😅
Don't beat yourself up too much. That was some incredible engine swap!
Confident you will get to the bottom of that engine misfire.
Stick with it. My wife's favorite car and she would like nothing more than to see it thrive!!!
If I could help Watch JR Goes work on the Jaguar F type I would drink the shot of whiskey and the cold Bartle Skeets and roll up the Number and get all schmoked up.
Im sure you will get it sorted, Still a drag at the same time it dont feel good
I'm sure glad the transmission is good. It would suck to put a new engine in only to find out the transmission was toast.
Love watching your videos! Keep it up👌🏻
You have deprived the world of a skilled surgeon.
You got all our support you will figure it out keep up the great work
"this is a problem for future me"
The phrase of a true procrastinator
it really blows after putting time,effort,and $$$ into a car,then it fucks u over afterwards 😒 don't give up tho after all that...cars really can be a diceroll at times tho 4realllzzz, anyone who's been there knows, good luck w/the jag JR👍
I've only worked on 2 but it was just brakes on one,the utta one was a radiator replacement and valve cover gaskets, tune up on an older 70s model w/a V12
Think I called that water pump when you first got the truck. Explained the half bottle of antifreeze in the back. LoL
It lasted another 3,000 miles! 😳
@@WatchJRGo yeah, they'll do that. Slow leak from the seals until the bearings finally rust away. 🤔
Maybe the coolant has baked onto the O2 sensors?
Nice work John, a little trouble shooting (hopefully) and the Jag is back in in top form.
Doesn't jag have a clear flood mode that allows you to turn the engine over several times without it starting? Running clear flood or manually disconnecting ignition to turn engine over several times before allowing to start should be protocol on an replacement engine. This allows the oil pump to fill all caveties with oil before starting under ignition.......or is this not necessary on junkyard replacements.....
Coolant spewing out of exhausts is like this channels mascot now.
I'm willing to bet is was a small wire unplugged or something crazy and simple. I bet by the time I've typed this, you've already got it figured out and fixed.
Nothing like a new engine with white smoke coming out of the exhaust. At least it’s good for content!
Jags just need a little extra love but I say that with nostalgia for the old Jags!
I love those cars, in the uk at a Jag dealer. So many low mileage f-types, the good ones v8s. Around £35-40k
There's probably a reason why there are so many at the dealer. Prob just out of warranty.
All off leases probably which is the only way to experience one of these.
Yep ... Small Block Chev. Not to late !
Another great video from JR. Thanks
Jr. Does not give up. I can assure all of you that.
Hopely, the Jag only needs a little more love and a major detail.
Cool Job!!! How much mustang is in this car?
Sorry to hear man after all that blood sweat and tears hope minor issue
I know I've said it before...as well as many others...but have you considered getting a workbench?!?! Poor Eric working on the ground!
I feel your pain I was a pain in the ass I have friends who had jaguars and they'll say they'll never buy another one again that's how bad of experience they have they fix something something else break the quality is not there at it is made by Chinese and Indian company so the quality is not there at all they cut too many corners.. beside Land Rover Jaguar comes second Land Rover is number one when it comes to problems in quality.. Land Rover and Galloway a money pit so it's a Volvo also has gone bad don't spend your money
Can’t wait for Detail Dudes to get ahold of the F type.
Oh snap.
😢😢No worthwhile project is done after the first trial run. Anytime I' worked on my car when finished my dad would ask - do you have a bus pass and good pair of shoes.
Good luck John Ross 🤓👍🇺🇸
If it has a miss-fire wouldn't there be diagnostic codes to tell you what is going on?
I'm sure that coolant's from the PREVIOUS engine, yeah that's it.
It's a Jag explains alot!
I took a F-pace on a test run (wife wanted one) and it died during the test drive. Funny thing…the dealer couldn’t get it started but, tried to sell it to me anyway.
You got dis JR!!!!!! You can fix anything!!!!! 🤘🏽🔥
I was going to say Air hammer and then you totally beat me to it!!
It’s the only way! 💯
“A bead on the snout” is that what the kids call it these days? 😂🤣😂
I hope that steam is not a new head gasket problem! Could cause misfire.
God damn it, went and put the old engine back in!
I know my ford cuts alot of the power steering if a abs wheel speed sensor is bad and it takes a while after putting in a new one for the steering to return to normal... maybe that jag that's definitely not a ford in any way is the same way
If it’s a misfire with a rough idle I wonder if it’s because of the new solid coupler needs to be programmed in the ecu. Had the same issue after first startup and drive in my 2014 sierra. Turned out the new camshaft I installed needed to be dealer programmed and it ran fine after.
Jaguar and disaster go together like peanut butter and jelly😂🤣.
Let's hope it's something easy and stupid like a loose wire or something. I had a beater 82 Celica I got dirt cheap and it was running great after we cleaned the pieces of the air pump out of the carburetor. After a month or so and a lot of work replacing worn out parts it just started missing and falling on its face under load. I was trying to figure out what went south as I replaced the plugs and the distributor and I opened the hood at dusk and it looked like a big lightning storm all around the plug wires. Some new wires later it was good to go again.
@@FalconXE302 I'm just glad I didn't touch the wires before I figured it out. I touched a old cloth plug wire on my first car, a ww2 Ford Jeep, and it felt like my hand and arm was hit by a hammer.
My Neon had similar issues a few years after I got it and turned out the plugs had 80k on them and 80 thousandths gaps. Ran great again with new plugs.
My secret for stiff steering on those European vehicles is put a small bottle of Lucas power steering stop leak in it and bingo. Use a turkey baster stuck out everything in the reservoir fill the stop leak. It worked on my BMWs Porsche Mercedes you name it.
After all that work, what a bummer.
5W20 oil for a performance engine, that seems unreasonably thick?
There's a setting in the car for the steering like Lincolns have
You can use Mobil 1 5W30 in the supercharger.
Never mind about that misfire because your driving a Jaaaag!!!………..I’m sure you’ll figure it out
Jag goes through the trouble of motorizing all the least used seat adjustments on a fancy door mounted set of controls and leaves a manual seat slider in a 60k car. 🤦♂️
I brought a new F-Pace sport in 2019 cost £50k I did not read spec sheet and missed that it came with manual seats and non folding door mirrors, basic electric sears were another £500. Option 😭
Mercedes and BMW have been doing that for years even in more expensive cars
Jag logic
That 's because seat motors were prone to failures and they didn't want a bad reputation.
Breaking my heart now too :(
I was told a long time ago in the GM supercharged 3800 days that GM SC oil was just Mobil 1 75W-90 gear oil. So that's what I used. Anybody else ever hear that?
So close!
Loved my Jag, for about a month!😂😂🤔
Hopefully the LKQ motor doesn't have a blown head gasket.
I owned an XJ6 back in the 1990's, and while I really loved the driving experience, it was constantly broken. Eventually the head gasket went and I gladly kissed it goodbye.
did you do a leak down on this engine in any previous video? or at all?
Could the power steering have a adjustable setting in the menu ? My Volvo has 3 setting from easy to hard
A man must own two Jags to get a daily driving experience.
I hope it is not the head gasket. The White smoke coming out of the pipe is scary.
Could I please have the link to the system you have in your chevy volt ?
is there a mode that lets you choose the steering feel?
Did you make sure the cooling system doesn't have air inside?
If it has air it can very well cause some white smoke, overheating (without showing on the dash) and if it's too hot the misfire.
Yes, I vacuum filled it like I always do... only way to fill euro/new cars 🍻
Is that a dashcam, phone in the volt? Or is it a part of the car?
It's Comma 3, it's driving the car. Watch the video about me making the Volt self-driving 🍻
Maybe you could put this in the car crusher and film it from the time it is loaded to the the time it comes out as a cube....
WatchJRGo collab with Whistlin Diesel: "This car means nothing to me."
You can't use pentosin in the power steering.
This should not be a surprise, it's a Jaguar.
Ever thought about building a monster truck??
Volt comment incoming 🤦
I got the dreaded BECM fault on my 2016
Time to see what the dealership says after 95k miles
if it makes you feel better a chevy volt probably has the same steering wheel as a corvette.
Liqui moly makes jaguar specific oil , special tec, pink label
good luk....its a Jag, what could possibly be wrong?
