Good tips. I've considered trying a few squirts of starting fluid as well, just to see if she'll fire up. But if it does, I guess I'm still going to have to figure out why no fuel. Pump, relay, fuse, ECM, yada yada yada.

Nope. No codes. Just died. He was able to start it 2-3 times after it died, but it would just fire up and immediately die. Sounds like the residual fuel pressure allowed the engine to start but not run. Now it just cranks but won't ignite. Plenty of spark. That rules out crank sensor, right?

I'm probably just replacing the entire pump/sender assembly. Verified this morning that it has spark but the parts (pump, oring, retainer ring removal tool) are $500 and I would love to verify no fuel pressure before spending the dough. Since there is no Schrader valve on the rail, is there...

Thank you. That's what I was figuring. I don't get why every vehicle doesn't have a remote, inline fuel filter given what we see come out of them when we change them.

So it sounds like my daughter's boyfriend's 2011 4.0L with 190K died while driving tonight. Restarts and dies after a second or two of running so I know it has spark. I am assuming fuel pump. But what about fuel filter? Do these trucks have replaceable fuel filters? The usual parts houses...

All parts have been SOLD! Thanks.

Make me an offer I cant refuse!

What's the part number for the "talls" you are talking about. I have a set of brand new springs for sale that I bought for the 2000 Limited I just sold and it was my understanding that they are an inch taller than the originals. Part number is 48231-35210

Having just sold my 2000 2WD Limited with 145K on it I can tell you $10K is not out of line for the right truck.

All parts have been SOLD! Thanks guys.

Not entirely sure. Although I'm pretty sure it was not a Toyota shaft but one they make themselves. Powertrain Industries in Garden Grove, CA. Installed the old shaft with new joints last night and all is well. $82.

I wish all problems were as obvious! Good luck.

I can confirm this! I just dropped off my 2000 2WD Limited driveshaft to have the u-joints replaced (front one was almost frozen solid in one direction and made noise when in reverse) and the guy said I was best off just replacing the whole shaft due to the presence of the rubber insulater...

I just watched your 4Runner rear spring replacement video yesterday. Thank you for doing what you do to help everyone. We need more Tim the Toolman's around here.
