    Engine noticeably sluggush when warm

    I was talking to a friend who used to work at toyota and he thinks it might be that I was only using 95 octane fuel. He came to this conclusion because the engine has 2 knock sensors and is probably very sensitive to knocking and the computer is probably retarding the igniton as all fuel in...

    Engine noticeably sluggush when warm

    I'm thinking temp sender problems or maybe the air bypass valve. I does idle faster when warm it think.??? I don't want to change to an after market ECU yet. I thought the standard ECU's should be good. Toyota/Lexus would have spent 100s if not 1000s of hours on the tuning.
