Change spark plugs on Lexus ES 250

I would like to change the spark plugs on my 1991 Lexus ES 250 ( I think they are still the original set). How involve it is to get to those three in the back? Do I have to remove the intake manifold and replacing the gasket afterward? Any other tips? Any tip would be helpful.

Thanks,

DC

No you can get to them by using an extension on your rachet with a rotating socket. Play around with the extension and rotating sockets to see which works best.

Where do you find the thermostat for the radiator on a 1991 lexus es 250?

Hi, Most of the time you can follow the UPPER radiator hose to the engine and there will be the thermostat housing. On Reverse Flow cooling systems you follow the LOWER radiator hose. All the thermostat does is trap coolant in the engine until it reaches a certain temperature, then opens to the radiator to be cooled. Don't forget to bleed the air from the highest place in the cooling system. Sometimes that's the reservoir, but look for a small plug high on engine. Good luck

No spark to engine 1991 ford pickup

It can be faulty or dirty spark plug itselfd.Also for reference get the fuel level checked.Is the fuel tank is empty or near to empty.
Try cleaning the spark plugs and then see if that is helpin.On some cases the black carbon layer gets collected on the spark plugs and that causes the problem,so cleaning the plugs help.But if its not helping,then spark plug has to be replaced.Spark plugs get power from ignition coil to ignite sparks.If ignitioncoils are faulty then also there will no spark.--------------

No spark

when you are saying no spark do you mean no spark coming out from distributor to spark plugs,coils,or no spark at all. Check coils,wiring connectors.
