I was browsing the forum and came across this. You might find it useful because I'm in the process of restoring my SC also and I sure did...

So far, I've found out that the SC400 maintenance/service info/tutorials/DIY is lacking on needed resources. Some admin told me to search. I can't even find info/step-by-step on changing the oil or spark plugs, etc. RIDICULOUS!

 

found this with three simple words.

"change spark plugs" https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=103316

Some admin must have been right. You know what else? There's one for the V-8's also.

Now that.... is ridiculous when it is right there.

 

Well, that's a little better, thank you. I don't know why I can't find things I'm looking for but I have been searching hard.

Labor....if I'm doing it...$12000clams!!!

Search and read what you find....
