dilligaff82 Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Just wondering if anyone is from around Eastern North Carolina, I just bought A 1991 LS400 and could use a few pointers from anyone with experience. I'm a DIY guy and this car is a little more tricky than my chevy pick-up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90LS400Lexus Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Hello and welcome! There are some folks here from eastern NC. My aunt and uncle in Raleigh have a 90 LS. Many here will be able to offer advice on your car. Just post away and enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcpth Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Hey n welcome to LOC . For all your DIY needs.... check out the tutorials from 92Lex in the main webpage down at the tutorial section or any other who might posted there that i didn't mention. http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showforum=14 Or you can check out Lexls's website. www.lexls.com Both websites i just described has tons of photos to help guide you through your DIY needs. Of course... thanks to them and many others here @ LOC for their great info n contributions. Also another site you may want to check out is: http://www.cureline.net/lex/howtos.htm If you have any other questions, by all means post them... and someone will definitely help you out. You can also check the search bar, for a lot of the topics probably have been discussed before. Let's see... this is also a great website just in case you get a trouble code and your not sure what it means. http://www.troublecodes.net/Lexus/ Most likely you can bring it to your local auto parts store such as Autozone, Napa, Advanced Auto Parts, Strausses, etc. to get your car checked to find out what the check engine light code is for. Well i hope this covers it for you. Congrats on you car, for only $1k, it's a great deal. I hope you just have to change the P/S line and do something with the radio, and i hope that's it and nothing else to bother you. Enjoy the car. Take care B) Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilligaff82 Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 Amazingly enough my $1000 Lex doesn't have any trouble codes... yet =) All the lights come on when you turn the key on so I know none of them were disconnected to hide a problem! Thanks for the links! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kcpth Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Wow... then you got a great steal. Seriously congrats on the car. Just make sure you get the line checked out, cause it can lead to more costly repairs. I'm assuming your pump is still fine. Take care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmblimo Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Hi, and welcome! I live in Apex and have had a '92 LS for a long time. The things I've found over the years: the parts are outragous; if you ever go to the dealer for anything, they will find so many things your car needs, it will break the bank. After they get through with you, you'd be better off to junk the car!!! I had a lot of things go out on mine around 90K miles. A/C compressor and evaporator, remote locking system, alternator, and steering rack. 120K on her now. I have learned to fix most things myself.
