My g/f has a 97 4runner, and the other night we couldn't get it to start. I know its not the battery or starter because it turns over but then it tries to idle for about a split second then the engine dies. I finally got it running by turning the key with my foot slightly on the gas. when the engine started i kept the rpm's up manually with the accelerator for about 5 minutes, then slowly released the gas pedal and the engine idled by itself. What could be the problem??? Thanks in advance.

Mine is doing the same thing. It mostly does it when it is cold though and doesn't have any real problems after it has been out and about for a while. Have you found any solid reasons why yours is doing so?
