creek Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Can anybody tell me if it is a simple job to change out the plugs and if it is how do you do it? Just glancing at the engine I don't even see the spark plug wires. Do I need to remove certain engine parts to get to them? Do I also need special tools?

creek Posted November 24, 2004 Author Share Posted November 24, 2004 Here's another issue...I called the Lexus dealer to find out what a timing belt change out cost and they claim I also need the valves adjusted at 60K. Does anyone know if this is also needed at 60K? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thienn Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 According to my OEM service manual (1996), the valves only need to be adjust if you have problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No real special tools...just a spark plug socket and a long extension to remove the plugs. The wires are hidden under wire covers that you will have to remove in order to remove the timing belt covers. It really isn't all that hard.
