I need to replace my motor and i dont no how?
Well, you are going to need access to lots of tools and also an engine hoist if you plan on doing this. It isn't the easiest thing in the world and unless you have done it before I don't recommend doing it yourself. A good start if you want to attempt this, is to buy a Chilton or Haynes manual from a local auto parts store for this car as it will have diagrams and complete instructions on everything about replacing the engine.
Start with that.
Power steering effort
check the pwer steering belt to make sure its not loose...check fluid levels...and lastly it might be the rack and pinion starting to go bad

1994 es300 how to install
You follow the lower hose up to the water pump where there is a housing for the thermostat. To remove this you will first, want to take the front right tire off then the dust guard for it; the thermostat housing should now be visible. Then you will want to take the plastic windshield washer, and engine coolant reservoir off to make the job easier. Next take the bottom rad. hose off the water pump(where it goes to, from the radiator). then struggle for awhile with taking the three nuts that hold the thermostat housing together (a wobbler bit on a socket wrench can make this job easier). Once these are off you can unplug electric plug on top of the housing, pull that part of the housing off and there the thermostat sits. Reverse to reinstall.

How do I manually close
It is under the trim at the front of the sunroof. When the trim is off you may be able to see what is at fault.
Preferred battery fir 1994 Lexus ES 300
Most battery dealers have a chart that tells them what battery fits where. If you don't have the chart, simply measure height, width and length of battery and note the position of the battery connectors (such as positive on right with posts facing away from you as an example) On most cars height is most important measurement as a battery that is too tall can interfere with other items. Buy the battery that has the highest cold cranking amps (CCA) you can afford within that size range.

1994 lEXUS ES 300, the car start but the gas is
Hi
The issue is with the idling control sensor
and you need to have the mechanic check that and it would cost you around $300.
The idle air control valve attached to the front bottom of the throttle body
against the firewall can also cause this. However you do not need to replace it you can
just clean it. After so many miles it becomes dirty and clogged. To fix remove
the rubber throttle body hose closest to the firewall( if standing facing the
driver side fender its the throttle body on the right hand side) once you
remove the hose you'll see a hole in the bottom of the front part of the
throttle body. Obtain a can of throttle body/air intake cleaner and using the
straw that comes with the can insert into the hole (you can use force, you'll
feel the straw flex around a bend in the hole) and generously spray into hole
repeatedly. I recommend using an air duster and straw inserting in hole to blow
out excess dirty fluid in between and than spraying cleaner again into hole moving straw in and out
going deep as you can go with the straw (normally about an inch or so. After you’re
finished leave the last dose of fluid in the hole to flush through when you
start the car. Reconnect hose, tighten screw clamp, start car, and go drive for
a mile or so. If you notice the problem returning repeat the procedure. This
will NOT damage anything in your car. If the car won’t start due to hydro-lock, DON'T
panic. Just keep trying to start car pumping gas it WILL start and wont damage
car. You might notice fumes and/or smoke coming from the tail pipe as well.
This is also normal and will only last a few minutes or so depending on how dirty it was to
begin with. Also check the battery terminals to ensure they are fastened
tightly because this can also contribute to your issue. If you have checked everything and also you have checked
the vacuum leak then I think the issue is with the transmission,
because the engine is revving up but car
isn't moving.
Please do accept the solution if the issue is
resolved or else revert for further assistance.
Thanks

My seat will not go forwards or backwards
check any relative fuses, use a rest light at the switch, if you hear the mechanisms, but they don't go anywhere, the motors have new couplers on them, but it sounds like a switch
Idles rough at first start up then white smoke
Is this car driven in a daily basis?
Check with your family member on DO NOT TOP OFF THE GAS TANK.When refueling the top off (excessive gas) will eventually destory the vapor control valve. When the valve go bad the vapor excape to the charcoal clean under the hood.
It's normal to have lite white smoke during the first 15 minutes of warm up. Pay close attention to above normal operating temperture and white smoke after 15 minutes of warmup/drive time.
To pin point a blowing headgasket you will need
1)coolant system compression tester
or
2)chemical reaction test for combustion test gas
If it's the org. engine from 1994,with over 150,000 then blown headgasket is a good possiblity.
Tow it to the shop and let the pro to do the coolant pressure test and combustion gas test.
A full head gasket job with head re-surface (if it can be re-use) is worth it.
Shop around on well estiblished independent shops.
Fix the blown head gasket at the first stage of failure can save you thousand on a head replacement.
