I posted a few months back about my 1991 ES250 having some issues. One day it just started running ragged, sputtering, and has no power. Someone on here was helpful enough to teach me the paperclip trick to get the codes out, and here's what I got.

25 & 26 air fuel ratio fault
52 knock sensor circuit fault
71 EGR system circuit fault

It's my second car, and I haven't had the money to do anything to it, so I just left it sitting and drove the other car. Well, now I'm trying to get it fixed, and am at a loss of where to start. Anyone got any suggestions? I don't have a ton of money to spend on fixing it.... and the few shops I've called told me just to scrap it, because costs to fix it are more than the car is worth. But I really want it fixed! So, I'm looking into replacing the EGR valve and the O2 sensor. Can anyone tell me if the EGR valve is the same for this car as it is for a Camry? If it is, I'll order it off ebay. Thanks!

no one knows? maybe I should just scrap this car.... it's too much of a pain in the *** to find parts for!

if you can locate 99-01's for sub 4K with patience, than what is your '91 really worth?

Sorry to be harsh, but that thing should probably be scrapped, at least you can get 100$ for it in terms of scrap money form the places that 'tow away and pay' you for the car.

Don't know what else to tell you...

I would fix it and buy the parts little by little. Camry V6 parts do fit, thats if u really want to keep it and fix it. If i lived in NC. I would of fixed it for u at a reasonable price to get it running right again.
