about to hit 120k
i am about less than 500 miles off from 120k. I am thinking about doing some service with a few buddies. I need your help if i am missing anything.
Things i am getting...
-6 NGK Laser Series Spark plugs
-valve cover Gasket.....dam those leaks
-Distributor wires and O-rings...leaks
-PCV valve....leaks!!!
-Transmission flush....
-fuel filter
-3 toyota denso Oxygen Sensor....my engine check light told me change but it went away after i got a new battery.
-EBC Green Stuff brake pads(Front and rear)
-Brembo Rotors(Front and rear)...warped/glazed to the max
-coolant flush
-ss lines
Things i did already
-bled the brakes since it was really bad! dark as used motor oil
-Switch to mobil one synthetic 5w-30.....the car feels more responsive now
-replaced oil filter...of course
-tires are still good....
-Got a brand new alternator...
-a/c compressor...since its not blowing cold anymore...i found that dam leak.
Did i miss anything else? also, anyone removed the distributor yet? i need some help

Lexus techs I have talked to say they actually don't recommend the timing belt and water pump at 90K, but 120K instead. If yours were done at 90K, you're good, but if not, you should do them at 120K. That's pretty low mileage for a '95.

1. drain tranny fluid from the pan.
2. plug up the pan, and then add in tranny fluid from the dipstick (make sure you have a funnel)
3. after putting in about 1.9 qts. turn your car on. drive it around linden and put the car through every gear possible (including reverse)
4. pull back into summerridge and check fluid level with the engine still on. add more fluid if needed.
5. ???
6. come hang out with me and henry on wednesday nights.
