tex-lex Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 It only happens when tank is below 1/3 full or so and it sounds flooded for a few seconds then runs and idles perfect. Car runs perfect after starting. There were several times I didnt think it would start. CAr has been well serviced with lexus parts. It has 115K miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could possibly be a problem with the fuel pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could possibly be a problem with the fuel pump. It's funny you mention the fuel filter. My LS has 96K miles and has been garaged its whole life. When I requested that the Dealer replace the filter they refused to do so. They claimed that the fuel lines were rusted and they couldn't do it...Yet, I see many posters here replacing the filter on cars with way more miles than mine..Is this typical Stealer BS?

bicol-ini Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 nope this is not a serviceable item for dealership to perform but if you want to replace it fuel filter is available or if you insist, i replaced mine a couple of years check my previous post with pix on the filter cut open, a picture says a thousand words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
