it started off by my car engine shaking a little bit and then it shakes alot more.. i drove it up to the bay area and then i parked and then when i got in the car a few hours later when i started it the engine shakes and then when im pushing on the gas it has a lag.. i havnt tuned the car up since ive had it! =/ it feels like if one of the spark plug wires came off or something but i checked that so im wondering what it can be? what do you guys think i should change so i can get my gs back on the road again!

well it started like this.. i replaced the harmonic balancer after that was replaced it barley shook a little bit and then a few days when by and i degreased the motor and then a few days after that it started shaking more. and now it just shakes..i havnt turned the car on for about a day and 1/2 now

DORK!!!!!! Don't ever spray water or degreaser on the top of a 2jz motor. The plugs are now sitting in a pool of water. Disassemble intake, blow out all the water with compressed air and DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!

wouldnt it started right away tho? thats what i would think

Not always, if the plug wires had a decent seal on the plugs, it might take some steam or heating and cooling to get the voltage to conduct to the water in the plug wells. Pull it apart and I bet you'll find water or degreaser. Then send me my $10 for being right

do you have AIM? if so my sn on it is Lexusgs300on22s hit me up

No I don't , too much spyware and garbage from AOL. Don't drive the car till you get the water out of the plug wells. Search on here for the procedure to remove the intake and throttlebody.

This is very true, I just had the same thing happen about 2 weeks ago due to a mechanic that fixed my car and thought he was doing me a favor and wash my engine. If you look under the car your cats should be glowing red after about 5 minutes of driving like this. VERY DANGEROUS.

I really don't know why they didn't do a full cover like they did on the GTE motor. I can't wait to go GTE valve covers...then I can wash my engine withought having to dry the plugs.
