i really dont know anything about this scanner, as to another plug, i know there should be another one somewhere on the left of the steering wheel, but so far i cant find it. let me know if you will. we have same cars so it will work for me 2. whats wrong with the plug on the engine? not compatible?
-
scaners are available for sale everywhere as well as engine codes. i will provide codes for generation 2

-

do search for ls400 and look through the search results
-

www.alldata.com
this is professional resource, all mechanics shoudl use it
-
perhaps its cheaper for first generation ls 400, i bought original parts for the lowest price i was able to find and its still 800$ not counting new coolant and new oil
-
i think the codes that lextreme provided are for firast generation, while second generation have different codes, my codes are from alldata, and might be more up to date for 95-97 models
-

i prefere denso filters, they are OEM filters for lexus. dont forget to jack the car up, its more convenient this way.
-
intake as well and a lot of other stuff, he posts on supra forums as well as on mkiv forum, you can check what they do there
-
not yet, no pix the body is not in a good condition in 2 weeks afeer puttin the spoiler , new fender, sanding and painting i will make pix, or i might do em on monday to make before and after comparison, engine makes 374 hp now
-
of course they are different, the left one has a mount attached to it and right one is just a pulley
-
gs 300, not 400, he might get GS without selling supra. too much work has been done on supra and too much $ spent. only body left stock on that piece of work:)
-
to get the codes for 1995 lexus ls 400
1. remove the top cover from the engine, it has only 3 screws.
2. locate a plug that is called diagnosis
3. attach scanner to it.
4. scanner will give you 1 or couple of 4 digit codes.
5. gimme the codes, i have a list . so i will let u know what they mean
-
did u take out the AC compressor?
-
i know in porshe u have to lower the engine just to change oil, my GF's dad's friend is a porshe enthusiast and he nas a limited edition air cooled carrera 91 and i saw him changin oil. thats some pain in the !Removed!. but as to japanese cars i think lexus is the worst. looks like the specifically desgined cars for their users not to be able to do service themselves.
-
so when do i wait? :) i'm still not gettin it :)
as to the guy who got lights on after the timing belt change. do the diagnosis with the scanner, the socket to connect the scanner is located under the top engine cover, get the codes and see which sensor is giving you problem
-
yeah, he has that japanese version with TT, the engine is relatively new and the car body is 91, the new fender for supra will arrive today or tomorrow and after sending and repainting i will ask him if i can get some pix to post
-
its completely reprogrammed so this one is gettin much more power, plus modified exaust and intake, there is a laptop inside to check and modify the stus plus bunch of diff gauges for the pressure and other stuff i dont know yet:)
