I used Caltex here in cambodia, which I hope the best of fuel.
I will check the Timing! but if its the timing would do that noise only when the Engine is hot? Cause there is noise when cold run until the engine start to get hot!
Hi,
I have a 1FZ-FE 1997 Lexus LX450.
I have can hear a small knock or rattle (really hard to define the noise) but its coming from the engine itself its basically happening under load when you accelerate from 1st gear to 2nd gear around 900rpm to 1500rpm, if I gas it up until 1900rpm then the...
Hi,
1FZ-FE 1996 here!
I'm hunting my Consumption issue and seem its the O2 sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1 but what I'm trying to figured is that is it the Sensor itself or the harness that goes to the the ECM.
Here is the sign: on the OBD2 live Data the Reading of the O2S1B1 is 0.00 Volt even if I...
Hi,
I have a an Lx450, 1997.
Lately the truck is drinking a lot. So I start to diagnostic step by step. I'm now test the o2 sensor.
As I saw and read we can test the o2 sensor resistance with just a multimeters. So I did a test with my multimeters and the reading is 14,7 of resistance. Is this...
Hi,
I have a full time 4wd Lx450. When the truck is in 3 gear I can hear a clunk noise when releasing acceleration pedal and re clunk when re accelerate again.
What it can be? Transfers case? or U joint? I don't hear it in 1 gear or 2nd gear!
Hi,
I have an LX450.
1996 with 1FZ-FE stock.
I have this 2 code:
P0125
P0401
The first one I think it's the thermostat but the second one it EGR but is it the unit itself?
The Gas milage is now TERRIBLE. 5.2 gallons for 28 Miles.
Thank you

So when the I have the AC on but compressor clutch is not engage its idle low and a bit tiny rough (600rpm) and like 1...
Hi,
I just do a master rebuild of the 1FZ-FE. The engine is rebuild with 0.25 clearance not standard.
I notice a BIG loud noise when cold start or when the truck is sitting for 3 to 4h. The Knock noise last for about 2 seconds! the times that RPM goes up and down when starting.
What is this...
The Ironman is doing great! the Shock handle the big bump really well but less on the small road bump. Those shock are not that long! But they can flex pretty well.
The Land Cruiser is the big love story within cambodia. 80 series is only popular with off-road community but the 100 or 200 Series is on road everywhere as a people daily driver! 200 series is now taking the Cambodian Street!

Hi!
I'm based from Cambodia. I used to off-road pretty hard on my previous 3rd Gen 4runner but sold that good girl for an LX450. World of difference. The lx is way more reliable and more confortable for any kind of trail.
Here is her spec:
LX450, 1997, no lockers.
4" Lift from Ironman 4x4...
What motor did you swapped? 6BT? LS2? or V8? Here I have access to the Turbo Diesel from the LC also! 1HDT, 1HDTF, and 1HDTFE but they are freaking expensive and old! so I may keep my 1FZ-FE!
hahha! I used to hear that! to best honest I dont care much about Milage! as long as I got the Power I'm fine! my 3rd gen 4runner was around maybe 12MPG on 33s which is a lot for a medium truck! so a 7 or 10MPG on the fat ass LX450 would be fine but I need POWER!
