Lexus Repair: GS300 1994, funky odor, woolite

Question
When I hit the pedal the car will hesitate almost to the point where it feels like it will cut off. This does not happen all the time but enough to worry me.Also I have a funky odor like mildew coming from my vents and the over drive light blinks.Please advise. Thanks


Answer
You must kill the mildew with an antibacterial spray & it takes forever. It doesn't just smell badly, it poses a serious health risk. Mind the leather in the car too. Most of that stuff is not friendly too it. If you lack a top quality leather cleaner & conditioner - Lexhol.
You can use very diluted woolite as a leather cleaner, and you still need a conditioner.
Meguiar's makes a good two part cleaner & conditioner. Don't use a one part cleaner / conditioner, or really anything short of Lexol, or Meg's 2 part. It's going to make your leather throw-up.

Short TE1 & E1, put the key to ON & the check engine light & O/D lights will flash the stored trouble codes. Bring them back to me, I'll explain it too you.
