My 2000 XKR rumbles under hard acceleration and has reduced power.
Interestingly when this happens there is distortion in the radio followed by no treble for 30-45 seconds. Given this there appears to be a disturbance of the electrical system under load.
 
The car had previously gotten some water on Coil #8 when the old owner washed the motor. The check engine light has not come back on since drying the coil but the rust seen on the #8 coil leads me to think it happened before and might be the culpret.
Anyone had this set of issues? Coils? Alternator?
Thanks,
Brent

Rumble under hard acceleration gone and radio treble no longer affected by replacing the #8 coil and plug.
