I just acquired my second LS400 (a '91). I had a '92 which just went to its demise with 307,000 miles.
Anyway, the (new) '91 has 127,000 miles and is in wonderful condition--except that the fuel door will suddenly not open. I pull on the switch under the dash, hear the sound, but the door doesn't open. The door appears to be mounted correctly; the gaps around all four sides appear to be roughly uniform. I had the same problem on the '92 LS400, but if I pulled the switch multiple times in quick succession it would eventually open. That is not working on the '91.
Any suggestions? I'm not even sure who to go to to attempt to fix it - my mechanic? A body shop? A Lexus dealer?
Help, and thanks!
