Frequently asked questions

What is the spark plug boss seal (NBC2579AA) and what does it do on the AJ16?
The spark plug boss seal sits at the camshaft cover where each plug well passes through it, sealing the well from the oil-wetted valvetrain cavity above. When it hardens and fails, engine oil pools around the spark plug and coil, a common cause of misfire and oil smell on AJ16-powered Jaguars.
Why does the spark plug boss seal need replacing, and what symptoms suggest it has failed?
The seal hardens with heat cycling and loses its ability to hold oil back from the plug wells. Signs include misfire under load, oil-fouled spark plugs, and a burning oil smell from the camshaft cover area.
Does this seal fit all AJ16-powered Jaguar models?
It fits the Jaguar XJ (X300) from VIN 720125 to 812255 in 3.2L and 4.0L form (not 6.0L), and the Jaguar XJS from VIN 179737 to 226645 in 4.0L AJ16 form. This is a Jaguar-only part and does not fit any Land Rover model.
