Fuel injectors leaking?

Could be.. last keeper never bothered to properly service car... So far sorted cam belt, fresh oil, oil filter, air filter and decent coolant.

Last keeper lashed in cooling system water...

For last 7 years had bmw's, was sick to fix them even if you look after them they will break for no reason! This Lexus is so well built that it survived all poor service! No other car could survive... Another thing it's so easy to work on!!!

Car was on knees when i bought her, but absolutely fall in love! 

Ordered thermostat ( take ages to get to normal operating temperature)

Bosh super 4 spark plugs

Will need to clean throttle body too...

Well at least you are gradually getting there,hopefully it won't be too long before you get the car where you want it to be - all sorted 👍

and check the TPS sensor is set correctly.

Personally I would have said no to the Bosch plugs and used the correct Denso ones but hopefully they will be okay.

The super 4 Bosch spark plugs should be ok as I also used them in my IS200 sport many years ago👍
