What is your question?
2000 S type 3.0 Jag automatic. Been fine but noticably takes long for heat to be hot. I drive 4 blocks, engine stopped. It starts but cuts off STAT. No service papers, bought used. Put anti freeze coolant in as idiot had only water in system( I live in NC coast...only cold a few months never below 25..can be 90 here ) Car seemed fine..added oil, brake fluid, power steering , transmission not sure. Only difference was just filled with Walmart gas..nobody had premium. Help, I'm retired nurse/ disabled n need my car.
What makes this problem better or worse?
It won't stay started
How long has your 2000 Jaguar S-Type had this problem?
Just happened yesterday. Towed home.

Hello, I'd love to help, but there's nothing really to guess at here. Water instead of coolant will not cause an engine stall. It can cause poor cooling system protection and performance, but not a stall really. I don't suspect the fuel is the biggest issue in the short term, but I'd definitely try to get known good proper fuel next time. If the vehicle will not stay running, you have an air intake issue, ignition spark issue, fuel delivery issue, emissions controls issue, engine timing issue or engine compression issue. Just no way to know until someone gets in there and checks it out. Hello, what happens if you put the tires and rims that were on originally back onto the vehicle? If the wobble disappears, you know you have a problem with the new rims and tires. Geometry can change and laws of physics can explain frequency differences that can cause vibration. If your wobble is at a specific speed, it could be as simple as a bent rim or out of balance wheels.
