I want to thank all that replied to my questions regarding the repairs on my wife's '97 LS400. With all the help and direction I was afforded here I was able to R&R the water pump, timing belt, caps & rotors, serpentine belt as well as all tensioner & idler pullies, weld the power steering assist valve, replace master cylinder, properly bleed the PS & coolant systems. I was also able to get rid of that annoying brake pad sensor warning light!

The car now starts, runs and drives like the day we got it. I had actually forgotten how smooth and responsive it could run and now all you have to do is breathe on the brakes and you're coming to a stop!

Now I'm on to interior repair, repairing the heater and some minor body work and it'll be ready for the next 161K.

Many thanks again all, CLUB LEXUS ROCKS!

Absolute truth! I joined several years ago just to lurk and read. Glad I did!

That's a fact.

Now on to the interior!
