  1. Thank Tyler, The sensors were about $40 for the pair and same with the harness. Appreciate the advise. I'm taking a little vacation from working on this car, but in January, I think I'll give the proper sensors a round. Cheers
  2. Thank you In advance. I was getting limp mode with a knock sensor code. I replaced both the knock sensors and harness. Put it back together and the engine purs. A few whips around the block and it still purrs but I have a code for both sensors. Also possibly related but not sure, it was slamming in second when taking it for the test run, prior to and during the codes arrival. The knock sensors came off ebay. They are supposed to be and look like toyota parts. (I know ebay can be a miss at times) I greatly appreciate your help, advise and insight. Justin
  3. Well, cleaning the computer and hauling !Removed!, lasted longer than I thought. I replaced the bank 1 Oxygen and a/f sensors today... Fingers crossed that cures it. J
  4. Hey John, That is so strange! I used Scotty Kilmer's method on Youtube for clearing the eco. I disconnected the battery, turned on the lights and interior dome light so it would drain the computer of any charge at all, let sit for 5 min. Then I idled in N for 4 min, Idled in L for 4 min then took it on average 50 mph hour for an hr round trip... Not quite 50 miles. I am going to look for what others say and I might try your method more precisely. Thanks for the input! Best, Justin
  5. Hey Folks, My wife drives a 99 RX300 with 225K. I have a code for bank 1 too lean. Symptoms; knock horrible smell from the exhaust studering with acceleration at 60 mph rough ideling I found two air leaks and it ran better but the code returned and after a tank of gas, the smell also returned with a sharp decline in fuel econemy. Today I cleared the computer and I have a returned code but the smell is not present yet. The good; no air leaks maf sensor working catalytic converters seem to be good (lean code and smell is not consistant) Fuel Filter, plugs done in the past 6 months injectors cleaned 6 months ago Does anyone have any ideas? Does anyone know which oxygen sensor is bank 1? I am going to replace that and see if we have improvement)
