To begin, I have searched the site for information but have had only limited luck as my predicament has been hard to describe, let alone "search". I thought I would describe my experience and see if any folks more knowledgeable might be willing to add their 2 cents.
My 4runner is a 2001, v6 auto with 126,000 miles. It has a B&M cooler bypassing the radiators cooler, NGK plugs and wires w/ around 10k mikes on them and up to date on air, oil filters, pcv. Other than that, stock.
A month ago while driving, my truck suddenly experienced choppy acceleration and eventually stopped responding to the gas pedal. Stalled dead in the road. After a rest, I was able to restart and drive home. No CEL and according to Auto Zone, no stored codes. I promptly replaced the fuel filter, cleaned the MAF and throttle body and found no bad vacuum hoses. Ran a couple cans of sea foam thru it with fill ups. I still feel a hesitation/miss in it under load. It feels like a water in the gas kinda thing. A flutter, if you will. It seems to run okay but I cant get a warm, fuzzy feeling without knowing what the heck happened.
I'd appreciate any advice you kind folks might be willing to give.
