Yeah it cranked fine but failed to catch.

I may have jumped the gun on the “problem solved” drove around yesterday to run a bunch of errands and get some new shoes on the 100 and was unable to start my rig because of venting fuel again. So, back to the drawing board.

Ok, I think I've made some progress. My buddy who is a Mercedes mechanic chatted with his Toyota mechanic buddy. Even though he had never seen this happen in an LC he thought that the reason could be a weak fuel pump. His reasoning was that a weak fuel pump could essentially be heating up the...

First Off, Thanks for taking the time to respond and so thoroughly. I have been following this thread since the beginning, but I think I've made some assumptions about the condition of my rig without a thorough check. I"m going to revisit the coolant system before I do anything drastic. Well...

'07 100 series

I'm curious if anyone has made any progress. The temps in Vegas hit the high 90's for a couple days and I've already had an issue. I was able to restart my rig after about 10 minutes, but still. I haven't had a chance to put new O2 sensors in, but now after talking to quite a few mechanics, I'm...

Can you elaborate on this? I'm just having a hard time visualizing what this is doing. Is the fuel running through this cooler? Do you have any pics? I'm at my wits end with this problem. The temps in Vegas just got up to high 90's for a couple days and I've already had an issue.

I agree about the returning fuel temps, but why the change in temps? Why does the temp of the returning fuel increase over the life of the vehicle? Mine started at about 100k. I bought it with 88k.

This is happening to me to with the same conditions. I never have an issue until the hot temps in Las Vegas come around. I actually plan my fuel ups so I am almost empty when I travel to Utah. If I have too much fuel in the tank and its boiling I am unable to fill up until the temp lowers. I can...

That's a good question.

I've been dealing with this problem for years now. I have an 07'. This is the first time I've been able to find any info on it. I've been to a handful of mechanics and nobody can diagnose the problem. Once the fuel starts boiling I can't shut the rig off or I won't be able to start it back up...

I am in the process of replacing my vapor canister on my 07 100 series. When I was searching for the part online I almost bought a canister for an 06 4runner. I was so excited about the price I almost missed that it was the wrong part, but it got me thinking. The 4runner canister looks identical...
