Good morning sirs please I need your help ooo My Lexus rx 330 is sucking fuel and also doesn’t fire sometimes when I accelerate on speed it doesn’t pick on time.

The rpm won’t 2000rpm after some delay it’ll just pickup immediately… idk what’s wrong, I’ve changed the plugs, coils, nuzzles, injectors mouth, fuel pump… yet there’s no changes. I bought o2 sensors too it didn’t stop I changed the brain box it didn’t stop….

The black smoke on my exhaust is very thick.

What can I do please! Should I just sell it ?

did you scan it, if not try scanning it. Don't let mechanics turn you to a semi man

Good advice.

Mechanics may second guess and say one of the fuel sensors is faulty.

There is a lot of incomplete combustion. Have you changed your air filter?

First scan, then check the following

1. Check catalyst. It could be blocked. Scanners may not pick it
2. Check your air filter. It may be blocked (too dirty)
3. Is the nozzle spraying well and Your fuel pump working perfectly with enough strength!.
4. Check your timing chain. It could have missed a notch. It will still work but terribly

Your exhaust pipe may be the problem. Google the effect of blocked or not well through exhaust pipe on engine

Most of the parts replaced in that car has compromised it..

If you have any of the original parts that came with the vehicle I will recommend you keep them handy..

You will have to purchase another brain box directly from eBay or an online junkyard and ship it directly to Nigeria.
Reprogram the brain box and rescan the vehicle to give you an accurate error code and most recent code.

I buy most of my parts from here in eBay and send it by air freight to Nigeria to fix my parents cars and have being enjoying the vehicles.

Most of the claimed tokunbo Parts are either repaired or non tested but it will be sold to you as ORIGINAL TOKUNBO as popularly called at the market.

Have being a victim numerous times but the moment I decided to start buying this parts myself,i never regret it.
If you buy the parts here it can be shipped via air freight to arrive in Nigeria within few working days .

Scan the car..
Make a list of the check engine codes.
Decode it from an experience mechanic or look online to check the code part replacement and you should be good.

Am also very sure your brain box might be one of the major problem.

May God provide for you to be able to fix it. Amen

Black smoke it's using more fuel than air... take it to a technician. It's easier to fix..

That could be your only issue.. if it's vibrating then it's your ignition coils
