Gentleman ,
Thank you all for the excellent advice as the Check Engine P0401 has been run out of town and hopefully never returns!
God bless you all for your time and support in helping me resolve this issue! Joe
Issue
My '97 LC failed NJ State Inspection due to a not ready ODB System status...
Thank you and everyone very much for your time, guidance and experience
I am going to have the manifold cleaned professionally by a Toyota pro this Friday and will let everyone know the results. God Bless
Hi Kernal
Thank you for replying.
My bad , he replaced the valve cover gasket , spark plug tube seals, PCV valve and PCV grommet .
Not sure which oil seal was replaced (the auto parts list just specifies Oil seal, I will need to ask him)
Replaced the alternator because it looked like it may...
Just bought a 1997 LC FJZ80 Collectors Edition , 3 previous owners , with 229K , no maintenance history , but no accidents or rust which is a miracle !
Drove it home from PA to South Jersey - approximately 250 plus miles with no issues.
I am a computer engineer and unfortunately not an auto...
