Looking to buy another LC and ran across this ad. Thoughts on value? Ton of PM including head done with receipts. 1996 Lexus LX450 / Land Cruiser FZJ80

And...... I start her up this morning and the CEL isn't on anymore.

I'm currently running 315s on factory wheels with 1.5 inch wheel spacers and love the look. The tires are pretty much flush with the fender flares.

I've owned my rig for about 6 months now and yesterday the CEL came on. I scanned using my Torque app and it shows "current fault P0116" and "Pending fault P0420". From my research on the two, P0116 is Engine Coolant Temperature Circuit Range/Performance Problem. Coolant temp still ranges from...

When I go from driving my 80 to my wife's '13 Kia Sportage it's a world of difference in amount of foot pressure needed to stop the vehicle. There's times my wife thinks I'm stopping to avoid a wreck when in reality I'm just applying the pressure I would normally use in the 80.

Does the metal pipe need to be removed to bypass or can you just leave it in place?

When I bought my rig the cruise control did not work either. It actually turned out to be related to my trailer light hopper (small black box behind rear panel). When I replaced that, all was well. May not be related at all to the your problem, but it was with mine.

I run Rotella 15w40 in mine. There's thread after thread of mud users swearing by it to not be "something there". It actually helped drastically slow down my rear main leak to. Only thing you need to consider is the temps in your area.

You mentioned coolant levels have gotten low in the past. You should not be having to replace coolant on a regular basis. You're losing it somewhere.

Looks like oil but just touch it and smell it. There's definitely a difference in both touch and smell between oil and coolant. I think you have several issues going to be honest. Your radiator looks bone dry from the pics. That's probably your biggest problem at hand because if you overheated...

I am clueless as to what the culprit is of this sound. It only does it on right hand turns, and it doesn't always make the sound. Typically what happens is after the right turn, within a few seconds after straightening the wheels and accelerating, there is a sound that I can only describe as the...

How much Seafoam are you adding???? I've ran it in my fuel but never added to the oil.

This is exactly what my rear main has been doing for a good 6 months. I'd rather add a few bucks in oil every once in a while vs. tackling that job.

What mile interval are you guys using????
