Far west of Siegen
EDIT: yes, that was supposed to read "1977"
I have a 1997 FJ40 that I'm trying to get to run, after allowing it to sit for a couple of months. It ran when it was stored.
The engine turns over, catches and runs for a couple of crank rotations, and then stops. There is also a very rich smell, during the seconds while it's running. After it catches, it won't start at all until it sits for a few minutes.
I know this isn't much to work from, but I'd like some thoughts about where to take the troubleshooting. Full disclosure: I haven't open the 2f manual yet.
