1990 LS 400 Was driving to store and engine stops. I put it in neutral & coast to a stop. Put car in park and try starting. When trying to start the car acts like its going to start but shuts down immediately. The ignition comes on w/ lights on dash like normal, lights work, windows and radio work etc but won't start. It has gas in the tank. It stopped 2 miles from home. Can I pull it home with another car? Thank you, Joseph.

SOURCE: 1990 Lexus Ls 400. What tempture is my car suppose to run at?

your car should not be near that, it should stay at the middle line or a little under. You need to keep an eye on your radiator fluid level. I just changed the radiator and thermostat in my wifes car. DO NOT DRIVE YOUR CAR IF ITS RUNNING THAT HOT, IT WILL BLOW YOUR MOTOR!!!

Your fuel pump or fuel pressure regulator are not supplying constant fuel pressure. Too much or too little is causing it to kill. You can pull the vacuum line from the regulaor and check for gas. If there is none, you need a pump, it is weak.

SOURCE: Was running perfectly, great milage, drove 35

I was having problems with 2001 Lexus also at the end of November beginning of December of this year. I needed inspection, the 3rd oxygen sensor was replaced. Mechanic stated that the noise from my car seemed to be coming from the Transmission. mechanic asked me to drive the car for a few days to be sure the oxygen sensor was fine. On my way back to drop off car for final inspection the car started to buck. Brought it back to mechanic, left it with him, he called and the car stopped moving. I had to have the transmission replaced plus the wall in back where fluid was leaking. Cost $3,200.00 plus towing $150. Plus oxygen sensor part and replacement and inspection another $600.00. Now runs very well, expensive however much less than the expensive of a new car. Happy New Year!!

Have a 1993 ford explore six cyl starts good but put in gear a it stall right away ?

In park or neutral not much load on the engine, when you put it in gear, there is a load. How may miles on the engine? How long since a tune-up? Any applicable trouble codes? Check and clean the idle air system and throttle body, see if it helps? Check cylinder compression. If the compression is way low, it may be tough trying to get it to run correctly.
In the old days, carbed engine, no computer, sometimes we'd set the idle in drive, at least it was driveable, it wouldn't die every time you stopped at a stop sign or red light. Yeah, when you put in park or neutral, the rpms would go high. Sometimes, your just trying to keep it on the road, if possible.

Elantra won't start and moves when it's in park

I'm going to say something happened to the cable between the shifter and the transmission. There is a switch on the transmission that prevents you from starting the engine in anything other than park or neutral. The transmission is probably in reverse or drive which would allow it to roll.
Someone would need to check the lever on the trans where the shift cable is attached.

Driving down the Interstate last week, just fine, suddenly it's like someone put the car in neutral. coasted to a stop, when i put in Park, there was a fine grinding, BUT car still wanted to roll down hill...

i would say the fine grinding was when you put it in park the output shaft was turning and the parking paw was trying to engage into park then the paw engaged into park but you say it rolled i am thinking that your problem is in the transfercase

My 1990 Lexus LS 400 stalls unexpedly (at any speed).When put in neutral, it starts up and runs fine for a few minutes then stalls again. Why?

Your fuel pump or fuel pressure regulator are not supplying constant fuel pressure. Too much or too little is causing it to kill. You can pull the vacuum line from the regulaor and check for gas. If there is none, you need a pump, it is weak.

My car stauls when come to a stop

Try to clean the fuel system and inspect the fuel senser and injectors, it sounds like there is fuel stavation which can't allow the car to move at high speed.
