I ordered a new fuel pump a few days before you posted this and just got it installed today...turned out to be the problem

It's yota dual cases...they are going to leak eventually :haha:

Yep checked that one. Is there any other way to jumper the fuel pump besides the diagnostic box?

Alright after a Mothers day off of working on this I got back to it tonight. Tested the circuit opening relay and it tested out fine. Went to jumper the fuel pump and the diagnostic box doesn't have a connector for FP where it should be. Just a blank space :eeek: I think the next step is to get...

Checked both the IAC and EFI relay and both checked out. Haven't had a chance to check the TPS yet The truck will start run to 1500rpms and die with no throttle input. Last night I was able to feather the throttle and keep it running for about 30 more seconds. It seems like it revs up when I...

I will check the IAC tonight to see if it's working. Never even heard of it before you mentioned it and I looked it up (engine newbie). Any chance the fuel pump could be cutting out after it starts? It's almost like it loses fuel pressure after it fires

Finally got around to changing the MAF and no dice. Starts fine idles up smooth then dies. Every so often it will hit 100-200 rpms and chug back up to 1200 then die. Any feathering of the throttle just kills it. Won't throw any codes. Any ideas where I should look next?

If'n one didn't go with a new Toyota MAF what's a good brand of a reman? A-1 Cardone, Beck/Arnley and Standard Motor Products are three that I see listed for about half of what a new OEM one costs. Really don't want to pay $600 for a new one :eeek:

It should have good gas since it barely had any in the tank while it was sitting and I just filled it up last weekend. Going to pull the O2 sensors tonight and put a dmm on them and see if either is bad. Is there a way to test if the MAF is bad?

Alright total history. Truck has been sitting for about a year and a half with only occasional starts and short drives. Took it out the other weekend for a drive to my friends house and it ran great all night. Drove it the next day and after a quick stop it wouldn't start again. Finally got it...

'96 toyota tacoma 3.4 V6 with about 180k on it completely stock motor. Been having some issues for awhile and threw a P0171 code which is lean condition. I pulled the MAF and cleaned it. After that it would start and idle roughly at 500rpm and if you applied any throttle it would die. I pulled...

Mines a 96 too...pretty simple stuff but the plug was kinda a bitch to locate. Sorry I forgot to snap a pic

What year taco? I think it was about 2000 that they started not having the plugged bung on the drivers side. I just used a punch to knock the plug out from the bottom side before I sealed the new pan on. I'll try to snap a pic tonight since my truck is on jack stands now anyways

Some people like their rigs to be able to do both. It's not that hard to get the caster set and have a good pinion angle. Just a cut and turn of the knuckles

Nope it had the lock washer on it when installed. And I torqued it on with a breaker bar so I am pretty sure it was tight enough. In fact the lock washer was still pressed flat when I found that the arm had play in it. Calling Sky in a few minutes and gonna see what they say might have caused it

I suppose that could have been a problem. I can't remember how far up the splines the arm went when i intially installed it. Regardless though it was super tight so it must have stretched and I have had the hydro assist on there from the beginning

The stock arm was made for an 31" tire...this is a beefy one machined from billet steel from Sky Offroad. Also the way I understand it hydro only pushes on the tie rod side of stuff. So it should protect the pitman and sector shaft since the only thing holding that is you holding onto the...

Yeah dammit why did you have to confirm what I was thinking LOL. Wonder why they don't harden those a bit to keep them from stretching out...especially at $140 a pop. Would have figured the hydro assist would have taken some of the strain off of it. Trying to get the truck in shape to make the...

splines look decent enough both internal and external. I tried tightening the nut but after half a turn it bottomed out on the threads. I am going to grab a flat washer and throw it on to see but I think there is too much slop for the taper to take up. I need to grab my spare output shaft and...

Yeah it was almost as tight as the factory one and the nut hadn't come loose...that's what I thought had happened at first. I remember having to use the nut to press it in place when I first put it on. Guess I'll just nut up and buy a new one and hope it doesn't happen again. Figured with the...
