And what do the o2 sensors say now when scanned?

There are 2 fuse boxes on the Lexus. The first is the main power distribution box and is located right beside the battery under the hood. The second panel is located behind the plastic kick panel under the dash on the driver's side where your feet go. The panel is vertical and covers the area from the dash to the carpet on the floor, just forward of the door. I can't remember if it's a pull off or if there is plastic twist nuts holding it, so check carefully before pulling on it.

Level sensor failing, replace

Get a fill kit with a pressure gauge on it from an auto parts store. The ones with a red, yellow,green indicator are the easiest to use. Follow the instructions on the label. You will be measuring pressure from the low pressure side, that's the one with the thicker aluminum pipe coming out of the compressor. There will be a service port with a plastic cap on it. That's where you connect the refill kit. Follow the instructions & get the pressure into the middle area on the gauge while the a/c is on max & the engine running.

If the radio plays with the engine off but not with the engine on then it's an electrical problem that a new radio probably won't solve. If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/oscar_403cc49e0f00cda7

Randy, I would stay where you are unless you want power at take off. IMO that consumes more gas. So, if you want more power, you might want to consider a tune up. Do you know when it was last done? Besides, regular servicing is also very important. Good luck.

You really need this fixed fast for if you have raw fuel coming from your exhaust your catalytic converters must not be working. If they were working they would be running a extremely high temperatures and be a fire hazard. You most likely have damaged exhaust valves causing this problem, a compression test will confirm if this is the case. The other possible causes are bad injectors, coils, spark plugs and ignition timing.

go on youtube you will find your answer there

Other than getting a locksmith, you may have to remove the door panel and take the lock out from the inside. Then replace it or remove the broken key. Hope this helps.
