I'm having a hard time reaching the ground at the back of the engine head, it's pretty tight in there. Is there a better way to reach it? Should I remove the heater core valve in place? Will I damage anything doing so, like gaskets or seals? I drove the car this morning about 30-40 miles back...

I just got done checking the ECU for leaks and whatnot, not that I'm bragging, but being an Electronic Engineer, everything looks fine in there. No leaks, no corrosion, actually the ECU was still sealed air tight, and was pretty hard to pop open and everything inside looked brand spanking new...

Alright, so I tried working on the ground this afternoon, it was quite a tight fit, I didn't realize how close the rear part of the engine was to the firewall. I did find a couple of bolts to the engine head, but I cannot identify which one is the ground, due to lack of lighting, and the rear...

It's 4 wire. It's brand new OEM Denso. Can you enlighten me on "scoping the voltage?"

Hi guys! Sorry to bump a dead thread... I'm a regular at CLub Lexus but no one can seem to help me with my problem. I went through the exact same thing the OP experienced. I have a '95 SC400 with 198xxx miles. I replaced my main o2 sensors about 6 months ago with the hopes to fix my gas...
