Hello Gentle men: Thank you for your sympathy,views,advise,and knowledge.I am going down to Lexus tomorrow to see if they find out what the problem is, the more I read what you have said, and the more I think about it, I am now convinced something has got down into the engine I went down there on Saturday morning to have a look at it, and I noticed that the cover where the cables from the ( coils/distributors ) lie in a small sort of trench was missing, when I asked them where it was the ANSWER WAS---- ERR I DON'T KNOW !!! maybe the "Tooth" Fairy during Friday night had it away. So tomorrow dawns a new day and the Heavy Artillery wants to come with me( SHMBO) I said NO!!!! ----now my other eye is swollen---I might learn one day but when??
