Lexus ES300 Intake Valve allows each cylinder to receive the correct air-fuel mixture that delivers smooth power. Guided by camshaft lobes, the Intake Valve is raised during the intake stroke and then seals tightly so that compression builds up before the spark plugs are ignited, and the cycle is repeated thousands of times per minute. Early and later Lexus ES300 engines follow the general designs described, employing either overhead valve hardware with lifters, pushrods, and rocker arms, or overhead cam designs that place one or two cams directly over the valves, but in all cases, the Intake Valve reacts to the valvetrain components that translate rotary motion to linear lift. Some ES300 versions run a single Intake Valve per cylinder while others run with twin units, the latter having better breathing at higher rpm. Modern ES300 models continue to maintain similar principles. Regardless of how many valve springs are applied, powerful Lexus valve springs, one around each Intake Valve, hold it closed when it needs to be, exerting typically 70 to 90 pounds when at the seat, more than 200 when open, to discourage valve float that can cost power or even cause it to contact the piston. Heat, wear, or excessive clearance may warp or burn the valve, so replacing a damaged part requires compressing the spring, removing retainers, sliding out the old valve, cleaning carbon, and installing the new component with care over clip alignment, steps that return crisp Lexus driving character.
