Ofcorse so will gasoline, diesel fuels, oils of various types. All of our petrolium products are quite potent solvents in their own right, and the concertrations are microscopic.

2004 Chevrolet Malibu 7.8 15.9 (est) 1997 Lexus ES 300 8.0 16.1 FYI his "heavy !Removed! car" has a slightly lower curb weight than your ES does.

Clean the combustion chambers & change the plugs. You should run 91 octane. (Or the lowest you can achive without knock being present.)

Yes, but please don't do it. Leave the interior painting to civic's DSM's & corollas

You can reset any code & clear the history of it. But if the conditions that tripped the code originally are still seen by the ECU, then the code will come back. Which code is it?

1) MR2 rebuilt, w' turbo v6 dropped in 2) Supra, the value rises if you keep the miles alittle low 3) Camry hybrid - I can get 60-70mpg out of my civic, a P&G driver should get 70mpg out of a Camry hybrid 4) LS430 - Too good to pass up 5) ES330 - because v6 ES kills i4 Camry platform Own a v6 jag, then spend $1500-2000 on converting to aftermarket EFI & fueling. Less fire potential that way lmao!

HBD where's the !Removed!?

The Avalon has always been a Camry, who's chassie has been stretched by 2 inches. It's still a Camry. It was also the largest Japanese sedan for a long, long time. The trim level itself sits in-between the Camry XLE, and the ES/Windom.

Yeah mine were purple when I got them too.

No it's a non-issue. That doesn't mean its not possible for an O-ring to dry rot & cause your injector to leak.

No. Pull the manfiold off as apart of doing a boatlaod of maintenance at one time. Once the upper manifold is off, the fuel rail can unbolt. Remove the injectors. Test them / clean them if you want, and replace the O-rings that seal them.

No to both questions. That's normal operation.

The stock gold emblems are a golden chrome film plated ontop of plastic badges. The stock gold exhaust tips are painted a sparklin (Metal flake of some kind) gold. Not plated. Just an FYI.

Do you have to get a cat-back? No. Only if you want one. Just find you a good sounding muffler if you do, and use a resonator of some kind. Even if it's just a long $16 cherrybomb. For N/A Power A y-pipe, high flow cat (if you have emessions, or want a cat), intake, and exhaust.

search kick-down cable

see if it's damaged. Shorting to ground, or not passing a signal back to the ECU.

The accelleration cable could be incorrectly set. Make sure the fluid is filled correctly, with the correct fluid. Dexron III.

How would there be a rear diff on a transaxle? The diff is integrated into the front of the transaxle. You can overfill them with the car not level. Keep in mind if you jacked the car up or put it on ramps. it wasn't level. It's no big deal, if it was way over-filled it'd simply leak out the axle seals so no worry.

P0150 Oxygen Sensor Circuit Malfunction (Bank 2 Sensor 1) Check the sensor's wiring if the sensor is good.

Mine has gold tips.

Clean the wire with a q-tip soaked in isopropyl alcohol. Otherwise you know. Check the resistance of it, or the voltage output & see if it's in specification. If you have access to a scanner that can log, or printout the timefreeze data. You can see how much airflow is entering the engine via the maf reading too.

dum dum duuuuuuuuum Flush it.

hmmmm Check the engine mounts, especially the dogbone. Make sure the muffler isn't rusted out. Oh and check the oil level, for real.

Timing won't affect fuel consumption. It simply dictates when the start of the combustion process occures. (and when the fuel injectors work in our case.) Most of the power gained is by leaning the engine out via the AFM cog. Which... Would only change fuel consumption in open-loop mode. (Greater than 75-80% throttle.) But timing contributes afew. The engine is so detuned, no. You don't need premium in it. The TRD supercharger exists for the 97-01 Camry. It can be modified to fit any of ther other transverse 3.0-3.3L engines. I hate the things, but alot of people do them. Don't need new headers if you just want to change the Y & cat. The effective compression ratio does drop with age on the rings & how the valve seals (among the head gasket also). But compression is worth relatively little power at the amounts people are talking about. OmarG wierd car. Start a new thread hehe.
