Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Nov 02, 2009 4:32 pm) I had switched out the instrument panel and apparently the air bag system had detected an open indicator bulb. Finally cleared the fault by ignoring the shop manual instruction insofar as timing sequence. Says 1.0 seconds +0.5 seconds in each position when what really worked was less than 0.5 seconds.

First, Lately my '95 LS 400 has been stalling out on me as I pull off of freeways, decelerating. First happened days after I had gotten my oil changed at Oil Changers and they had replaced PCV valve and had me restart the car before they had put valve back. Ooops! Don't know if that's related, but it didn't used to do it. Never does it in around town driving, only when I've been on freeway, so I'm wondering if has to do with something heating up? Always starts back up, immediately. Any ideas? Second, when I was researching buying the car, the only "drawback" I read was it didn't handle that well in wintry conditions. Got first hand experience of that yesterday, when I spun it out on I-5, Siskiyou Summitt in Oregon, in very light snow at 60 mph. Hair ball stuff. Rear end slid out on me, and then I'm doing a 540 in the middle of the freeway. I remember thinking, damn I'm surprised the car didn't roll (such was the force of the spin) which I guess speaks to the "good" handling of the car, which I've also been told about. Any tire suggestions? Studded snow tires? (they're legal here in Oregon). I've got some Cooper all-weather on my rear tires, but they didn't do me much good yesterday, unless I should have them on front, too, to keep things "balanced". thanks for any suggestions on either of these items. -mac
