Engine Mechanical problem
2003 Other Toyota Models 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 43000 miles

I have an inherited '03 Tacoma that's waiting for probate/title to clear before I can get it registered. It was running fine, but I haven't driven/started it in about a month. When I tried to start it today, the engine won't turn over. Battery is fine, starter seems to be fine.

I'd know what to do it it had a carburetor, but for EFI, I don't have a clue. What's the save here? Thanks...

Hi alfonzotan
Need to determine fuel or ign. problem. Spray carb cleaner in intake if it fires then fuel. Pull plug wire place next to block crank spark ? if no ign.
Let me know
Thanks for donation

Thanks. Now for the stupid question: Where's the intake on that engine?

Look for the air cleaner box follow according hose thing to the throttle body. loosen screw clamp pull off spray then slip back on and crank.

Thanks. With the carb cleaner sprayed in, the engine turns over once and then dies. Same thing happened several times in a row.

Hi
So did the engine fire ? If so fuel problem.
Have you checked for spark?
Need to know answers to both questions.
