  1. my key used to do that on my 91 right after i had the tranny rebuilt i had to play with the gears sometimes it was quick but sometimes it took a while this didnt happen all the time though
  2. thanks for the info dave i was looking at tht same kit how much did you pay and whwre did you purchase it also how long did it take to arrive
  3. i told a friend that on my 91ls the fans never came on and he didnt believe me i lived in baltimore at the time so i think rfields is right the condenser fan should come on when the a/c is on though
  4. hes so immature your probably going to have to blacklist all his friends ips also what a shame
  5. good move
  6. i ear that same sound when backing up and i figured that i need to change my pads but where exactly do you grease the pad nc
  7. did you just call sk an idiot or am i reading you wrong?
  8. i think you are on the right track changing the thermostat which is probably the problem
  9. tthanks blake thats what in wanted to hear and wanda i do have the transponder
  10. my question is can a locksmith make a lexus key from a blank off of ebay? i already have the fob(also off ebay) i ask b/c the lex key is cut inside unlike most which are outside i asked the question in another post but no one said anything and i would like to know before i order the blank
  11. im glad you got the plate probably some young stupid chicks
  12. cant go wrong with that model i had a 91 that was pearl and it took alot to get rid of it im still fond of the color
  13. more than likely because the ecu needs to know the temp of the air the colder the air the heavier and vice versa so the engine can get the correct air/fuel ratio idont know where its at on your year but un mine its buit into the maf sensor onthe air box after the air filter
  14. good a clogged egr is just as bad as stuck closed egr because if the exhaust gases are not allowed to vent into the engine tat would create a very rough sounding engine which could die from time to time from too much pressure by the way are all your codes gone?
  15. this is all solid info im definitely saving this page you guys need to post this in all forums with the needed changes depending on engine thanks
  16. that site looks nice i saved it so i can go back there later thanks for that info
  17. sounds like balljoints or control arm bushings
  18. the o2 code means that the cat is not burning the exhaust fumes properly which is killing the sensor sooner and producing the smell while the throttle position sensor might be going bad causing the throttle not to open up which would make the car stall out from lack of air these are just some of the things that you should check all you need to do to check if the fuel pump is getting a signal is disconnect the pump connector and check for a signal with a voltmeter
  19. if you dont want to worry just change it your going to be in there anyway and it doesnt cost that much
  20. put some oil dye in there and let the car run for a little while then turn off the lights and inspect all parts ofthe engine carefully the dye glows in the dark so you should be able to see the leak if there is one by the way are you sure that you didnt spill any kind of fluids in there this would cause a smell until the heat from the engine burnt it completely off
  21. that means that the charcoal canister is not purging the exhaust gases into the intake correctly which could be many things first you need to check the connector to the VSV(vacuum switching valve) is properly connected,then make sure that the hoss are connected,after that you have to check that the ecm is sending the proper signals which is awhole new ballgame because you need the wiring diagram for the circuit. i dont know where the VSV is on your car but on mine its right next to the injectots on the drivers side i hope this helps
  22. thanks just wanted to make sure hopefully ican finish up the polishing this weekend if itdoesnt rain
  23. im not too pressed about it right now but i will let you know what happens
  24. monarchs right i just flushed my tranny last week i took the pan down and cleaned it also took the filter out cleaned it off and put it back in i used the toyota t-iv and my car runs eal smooth too
  25. it actually not that cheap because the reservewasnt met yet and you dont know how high it might go well have to wait and see but even the reserve was a steal
