My Lexus LS400 was running perfect - no issues whatsoever. Today it won't start. Have tried jumping it but no luck. It acts like it is about to start but won't.

Sounds like an engine immobilizer problem. close all doors,hood & trunk completely. lock and unlock the car three times with remote, then put key in door lock and lock & unlock three times.
did you accidently try to start with wrong key?

My 91 ls400 acts like it vaper locks dies out has to sit awial then actes like it has low power for awial then serges to normal what may be the problem?

this is a computer problem. 91-96 lexus ls400 are known for having their computers go out on them. I would have never believed it but my ls400 did the same thing. I sent the computer to Auto Computer Exchange in Davie FL. They reprogramed it for $310 sent it back to me in a day. It fixed the car. I have had no problems out of the car. I now work on ls400 on the side to fix the same problem for other people.
