Hi, I'm going to extend the room of this post.
A couple of days ago, I was performing a quiet urban driving, when suddenly my car drop its idle to almost stall, and started vibrating out of range. I immediatly assumed at least one cylinder was misfiring, so this morning checked the whole...
Hi all.
Tired with CEL, dive again in the EGR, and get in touch with this interesting search of the correct resistor value.
As I'm an EE, Almost read the entire thread, and a thought came up in my mind; why substituing the temp sensor with a resistor? It would be easier to plug a 5-50* kOhm...
Hi again, tribe.
Back with a tech question, my Lex is tack - tacking, right like a boiler top. I've recorded it and is attached. (You should change file extension from .pdf to .mp3 if you want to hear it)
Months before, I think it made this sound pretty slightly, but right now started loud.
I...
Vehicles here in Spain has to comply with EC emission patterns. They are slightly less restrictive than in the US. They are called EURO, and named by roman numbers (actual IV) u can learn more in the wiki.

...And an elevated fuel consumption. (Last time 21.13 gal -> 237 miles). Changed the VSV, some hoses and the O2 sensors. Thinking on changing the whole EGR systems, and regulators. ¿Any cheap provider?

CAMBIAR LA VSV
Bueno, aquí explico cómo cambiar una válvula del EGR que genera un montón de problemas. La VSV, Vacuum Switching Valve, Válvula Conmutadora de Vacío. Esta válvula conmuta el vacío que maneja la EGR. Su fallo provoca que salte un CEL (Check Engine Light), aunque el motor funcione...
REPLACING THE VSV
Ok, Here is shown how to replace the VSV, Vacuum Switching Valve. This valve generates a persistent CEL, and can cause an excessive fuel consumption. The ODB II error shown is a P0401 – EGR insufficient flow.
In this disassembled intake you could see the VSV. It's hard to...
Hi! I'm looking for a clean turbocharged FZJ-80, Just for competition here, in Spain. So that means international sale, with all that means. Thank for looking!

Switches are easy to get, but... How about the plugs?
I've just installed backside fog light (In order to comply with EC cars normative and get my legal plates!) I had to unwind a new cable, as my LX-450 hasn't got factory one (Of course new relay, etc..)
In europe, factory backside...
