Air Injection - Equipment Changes

Number: J8134

Date: January, 1982

Subject: Air Injection Specification Change

Models: 1982 XJ6

From VIN 336198 and for the balance of the 1982 model year, all XJ6 vehicles will be built to the California/49 state specification, which deletes the air injection system. This change in specification also applies to all Vanden Plas versions of the vehicle.

The following components are therefore deleted:

Air Pump (P/N) EAC 3645

Air Switch Valve (P/N) EAC 3826

Check Valve (P/N) C 34017 (Lucas 5354987)

Switching Module (P/N) DAC 2528 (Lucas 73209)

The extra air valve is fitted to both air injection and non air injection vehicles, however, they have different calibrations and part numbers:

California/49 state (non air injection)
P/N EAC 2536 (Lucas 73193)

49 State (air injection)
P/N EAC 3882 (Lucas 73212)
