Just chiming in here, chris17house, Toy was just trying to help you out. If you searched and found info on a later model you should have posted it and asked for comparison info. chris17house, Your avitar in no way displays patience, My 2 cents. Didn't mean to highjack the thread.:whistles: ← I have all of the patience in the world LoL. Sorry if my avatar doesnt display that, i thought it was funny looking thats all. I didnt mean to come off impatient, i was simply saying that i had already done a search for my car and only found other models. I didnt even think of asking for a comparison, that is a good idea. Thank you for all of your help guys. Im gonna end up taking it to the shop to get it done, i cant reach the last two plugs behind the throttle body. And i dont think i want to take that apart cause ive never done it before and i dont want to break it. Thank you. Chris

I actually did do a search and found the exact info that you gave me, only it was for a 97 es300. I wasnt sure if it was the same for mine. Thanks for the reply but you should have a little more patience. Thanks Chris

Im not seeing an easy way to get to the 3 rear plugs in my es250. Im not as smart with cars obviously as all of you so im asking for some help please. What should i do first to replace them? Thanks Chris

Hey thanks for the quick reply, Those are two things that the repair guys said are ok with the car. He said the exhaust is ok, as well as the 02 sensors. Could it be spark plugs and wires? Or should i just replace the 02 sensors anyways? Thanks again Chris

Well I was in an accident and an old man with a truck slammed into the rear passenger side panel of my 1991 Lexus ES250, and about a week later my car started doing the folowing. -I feel a substantial power loss, especially when I go up hills. The more gas throttle i give the car when going up hill, the slower it goes. - The engine light has also came back on, and turns on and off at its own discretion. When I,m in the garage and i rev up the car to about 4000rpm the car spools back down backfires. I took the car to get a diagnostic reading and the Codes (25,26) came back which indicate a Lean/Rich fuel mixture. I was wondering if anyone else has had this happen to their car. I would appreciate any help seeing as how im a college student with little cash. Thank you in advance Chris

Yeah I read my question again and I don't know why I even posted it. I think it's just a combination of road salt, with the small amount of oil that is leaking from the valve and cold weather. Anyone have a set or just 2 15" chrome wheels for a 1991 es250 or ls400 for sale? I just slid into the curb with mine today lol. Chris

I opened the hood today on my 91 es250, and on top of the block where those bolts are that have the rubber seals (not sure what they are called sorry) there is a maroon colored substance, I guess it looks like rust. it is also on a few of the sides of the block. I live in michigan so i dont know if it has something to do with the salt on the roads or possibly something leaking. But it appeared within the last 2 weeks. The substance is thick too, I can scrape it off with my finger. Has anyone else had this happen. Tried to take a pic but it doesnt show up. Chris Also i dont know what those bolts on top of the engine with the rubber seals under them are called, but you can tighten them with your hand. I noticed that the outer left seal has oil around it, Can someone give me a little insight on how to properly take care of that? Thanks again.

Don't you think heat would become a factor with the Rhino Lining? Plus the lining would spray all over everything and might plug some holes or cover a sensor, like the sensors on the resonator. How would you take the resonator sensor out of the pipe if its sealed up LOL. Just my opinion. Chris

Yeah I don't know what I was thinking. I guess I rushed it. Its too good to be true. Thanks for the replies. P.S. anyone want to buy a resistor LoL. Chris

So is it worth installing when I get it to try it out, or is there a risk of hurting the car (at all) if i do try it out? Thanks Chris

I just saw one of these for the ES250 on ebay. Has anyone ever used this same product, or does anyone have an opinion about it? Here is a link to the description. I bought this one for my mom for xmas but it hasnt come yet.(Ohh well.) I wonder if it will hurt the car at all. Appreciate your opinions. Chris I only spent $7.50 on it, so i figured why not. Sorry i must have forgotten to put the link in. Here it is. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...TRK%3AMEWN%3AIT

No, i meant to say that clicking=clunking. It still makes the same noise that it did before i replaced the broken drivers side halfshaft. It only makes the noise when turning left. And as soon as you start turning left, the noise starts. No matter how fast you are going. The noise doesnt stop untill i straighten the wheel out, or turn right. I dont know what you mean by "direct frequency to the speed of the wheel", but the faster the car goes while turning left, the quicker the clunk gets. No nail in tire. Chris

My es250 came with a a mod i thought was simple but cool which was, ls400 chrome wheels. But then i added sylvania silverstars, and blue courtesy lights, and blue trunk bulb.

yes, they wil make a noise in revers SOMETIMES. not always, but thats still a good question. also, on left/right turns at low speeds, you will get a CLUNK. you should be able to feel it in your floorboard. the inener ones usually are responsible for the ticking noises, whiel the outer ones are usually the culprit behind the clunks. it can work the other way around sometimes though. ← I guess i should have said that it "still clunks" instead of clicking. My fault. What im trying to say is that when i turn left at slow speeds i still hear the same noise as i did before i replaced the cv shaft that had a ripped boot. You're right about feeling it in the floor boards. It gives you an uneasy feeling. Glad to see you are restoring your es250. I would too if i had the cash or skills.
