Both the connection to the resistor and the FPR, along with the bundle near the wheel well. Moving the resistor's connection while ilding caused the engine to stall. Since those wires near the wheel well are strained against each other, it could be something down there.

Alright, finally had the chance to drive yesterday. After a few short trips (~5mi) in the cool morning, I headed out in the hot afternoon onto the freeway. Within a mile the LC sputtered a few times as engine power cut-out, and then it ultimately conked out after riding the shoulder for another...

The last couple of weekends have been fine, but it was warm today and after a long drive, it stalled twice on startup after being parked for 30 minutes. I ran my hand along the FPR connection and tried again successfully. Seems like an electrical issue now. I'll start checking harnesses this...

Smoking Rocks, I fired it up this afternoon and it stalled on low idle within 5 seconds. Next, I used a jumper on pins 3 and 5 of the FPR relay connection and fired the LC up. She ran fine for 10 minutes as the idle RPMs dropped below 600 and then picked up again to remain stable at 650-700RPM...

I can restart it right away after it stalls, but the idle is very low now. I'll need to try and adjust the TPS tomorrow. I did clear the engine CEL codes by pulling the 15A EFI fuse and I'm wondering if that impacted the ECM idle. Maybe I should have left it idling for 5 minutes when I was...

Alright, just got back from work and received the part... Unfortunately, the problem persists. I installed a new FPR, started up, and it idled at about 1800 RPM for about 5 seconds before shutting down. I installed a new TPS sensor. The engine idles weakly at 600 RPM then shuts down within 5...

I ordered a TPS just in case since the ODB did give the error. I'll have it on hand in case the FPR doesn't fix the issue. Thanks for all of your help. This place is great.

SmokingRocks, Thank you very much for the thorough walk through and help. I'll need to follow up again as I tried testing the voltage across terminals 2 and 5 of the connector and saw 0.4V with the key in the On position. I then jumpered terminals 3 and 5 and the engine fired right up (after...

Thanks BILT4ME. I saw your post this morning and checked the CEL after jumpering it. 24 and 41, so intake temp sensor and TPS signal.

Thanks for the link. I jumpered the TE1 and E1 terminals and checked the CEL. I had two codes stored, 24 and 41. I do have a FSM downloaded from the Toyota Technical website. I'm on to check the FPR per SmokinRocks. Thank you very much for your help.

Haha, oh no. I've read a few threads about people messing with the screws on the wiring harness of the AFM/VAF/MAF. I only unplugged the connector to perform the tests on resistance. The air flow sensor was my guess originally, but its resistances check out.

How tight should the throttle cable be? It hasn't rained here much at all, so I don't think it's water. I did check the VAFM connection and harness, which were dry. I'll check the ECT sensor tomorrow. Besides resistances and integrity of connections, is there anything I should be looking...

There isn't any CEL when it starts, idles, and dies. When it did shutdown on the freeway, I did see the CEL, along with the other lights, but I wasn't able to check it as I wanted to get off ASAP.

I checked the throttle cable and there's only about an eighth inch of give, so it's pretty taut. The action is also pretty smooth.

Hello LC enthusiasts, I have a 93' FZJ80 with +300kmi. A couple of weeks ago it started, idled at 600 rpm, then died after about 5 seconds. Popped the hood, checked connections, and tried several more times. After about 30 minutes I gave it another try, this time revving high, and the engine...
