Man I wish I had a good answer for you. I tried a bunch of stuff and randomly tried to start it again, and after cranking for a couple seconds it finally started but was anemic. Didn't touch the accelerator until it warmed up, then it ran great since then and have never run into this problem...

Selling pair of headlights and grill from a 91 fj80. The grill has some paint chips and is slightly bent at the bottom. Headlights have tabs intact, but some green paint overspray on the chrome. Would like to sell as set $160 + shipping

Good news!! By the grace of God, my baby is running again!! Sorry I have no satisfying answer, but it decided to run again. Maybe messing with all of those connections helped clean it up a bit and is now making better contact. New fusible links come in Monday, and I think I'm going to go ahead...

Checked spark by pulling a sparkplug out, grounded it while cranking to see if sparked. Only checked 3 but each of them seemed good. Haven't washed engine, but could probably use one of these days. Not sure how to check TPS and MAF to be honest, but my scanner is reading TPS at 11% at idle and...

Quick update: checked fuses with multimeter and all seems good. Also checked fuel pump pressure after fuel filter and got around 45-50psi, I think spec for cranking is around 40psi. Wiring harness under glovebox appears undamaged as well as near the egr valve. Also tried spraying starter fluid...

I haven’t but order some just in case that should be coming in Monday. I maybe misunderstanding, but I thought with the CEL light before cranking and all of my accessories and light working that it’s good

Ok I’ll check those out, fuses look good but haven’t check with multimeter and haven’t inspected wiring harness yet. I don’t have an aftermarket alarm, but probably have the factory system.

Is there a good way to check the injectors?

After cranking can smell fuel in the exhaust, and the return line seems to be putting out good pressure. But I'll try to measure actual pressure it's putting out

CEL light is on with key in before cranking

This is my first time posting but this forum has been incredibly helpful. To be honest I am at a loss. I have a 96 LX450 that was running great until a few days ago it started up like normal then hit the accelerator while in park, engine rev'd up a bit then dropped and stalled out. Ever since...
