After 14 months or lifelessness, my XT6 finally fired into life yesterday.
Last year I just messed around with it without a lot of enthusiasm checking the basics - fuel, electrics, etc but everything seemed fine.
Then when the warmer weather finally arrived this week, I got a sudden urge to try again, so I got a big a$$ power charger, hooked it up and away she went.
It ran real rough for about 10 minutes but finally smoothed out and now sounds as good as ever.
So with that hurdle out of the way all I need to do is replace the front drive shafts, fix a big oil leak from the oil pan, fix the A/C, and fix the gear shifter (can't get park).
I should be done in another couple of years
Good Show Colin!
You can't keep a good XT6 down!!
If you have any questions on it, let me know, if I don't know, I do at least have the Factory Manuals for it

Good to see another XT6 going
