My truck is an 85 4runner. I am doing some body work and will hopefully repaint this thing at some point. This decal appears to be rare and I don't want to lose it. Does anyone make one like this?

Drove it.

Thanks. This thread will be a reference for me in the long run with my truck. Appreciate the help

What was causing your pumps to fail?

Update: I didn't have the time to keep trying to figure it out, so I broke down and took it to ToyTech in Colorado Springs. Turns out it was the fuel pump (as a few of you suggested). It wasn't dead, it was dying though. So I was getting some fuel pressure, but not enough to start it. I...

I like your avatar. I saw that method on another site. It's a great idea. But I'm probably not going to do that. I don't have easy access to the tools necessary.

Thanks, I will give it a shot then report back.

The No Agenda Show, the best podcast in the universe. Media deconstruction and plenty of doses of sanity in the insanity of the news cycle. Dan Carlin is great. I wish he would produce more content but I understand why he doesn't. Joe Rogan, but only when he has interesting guests.

I would watch if I felt like his opinions were valid. But the dude keeps a parachute in his bug out bag. I can listen to hickock45 talk about the weather for 2 hours. It just seems like Nutnfancy manages to say very little in the way of useful content, and takes all day to do it. MAC is...

This question has been asked but I'm looking for a way to secure my truck from wandering off. I was planning on doing a kill switch to the fuel pump as others have done. My question is, how exactly. Do I just wire a switch into the positive wire? Does it have to be a certain type of switch...

Could this possibly be a bad ECU? I know ECU is the last thing to check on every code. Would a bad ECU go in and out with colder weather?

by the way, I really appreciate all the help I'm getting here. Thanks

I pulled the cold start injector and cleaned it and tested it, it's working. Still won't start. I may try pinching that fuel line as suggested. I'll have to figure out if it applies in this case. If the injector is working, that would indicate that the sensor is working as well, correct? I...

Thanks, I guess this is the next step. I changed the fuel filter and it didn't improve the situation at all. I did however find out that the fuel pump is supplying plenty of pressure. So I have ruled out the open circuit relay, the fuel pump, fuel filter, air flow sensor, and TPS.

I've decided to tackle the fuel filter first. This is going to be fun.
