One Bumpy Ride :/
hey guys.
I'm drivin a 94 lexus es300. I bought the jawn from an auction in allentown PA an I live around philly. The car came with abt 230,000 miles on it.
Anyway, when I start my car up it runs fine. Once my engine gets hot it starts to idle rough and lose mid-range torque. Also, the ride is really bumpy and I think it might be the rear hub.
I put new spark plugs in, a new fuel injector (to replace a dead one), a new timing belt, water pump, power steering belt, exhaust, brake pads and rotors, rear struts, tires, and radiator hoses. I changed all of the fluids and ran about 4 or 5 tanks of gas with fuel injector cleaner through the engine to burn off any sludge.
It still has the same problems. whts wrong w my car guys?

yah replaced distributor cap an cables. an yah it rides bumpy on smooth surfaces too but tht could be a drivetrain prollem. How would I check codes?
..also, idk if this helps, but the car does smell like it burns oil when its running.
