89 toyota pickup extra cab shutting off any advice
I have a 1989 Toyota Pickup extra cab. I have been having a problem with the truck just shutting off at different times. Doesn't matter what the temperature is or how long I have been driving. It just shuts off. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Check the IACV, possibly some adjusting to get the RPM's a bit higher during idle, mine would die on me while slowing down and I adjusted it, problem fixed! it might not be the case with you as there are many reasons for a car to die, as well as more info is needed

Take the battery cables off and clean the battery posts with sandpaper until they're nice and shiny. Soak the cable terminals in water with a spoonful of baking soda to remove corrosion, and then sand the terminals down to bare metal so you've got a good clean connection with the battery. If you get battery acid on your hands, remember not to pick your nose or wipe your hands on your jeans.
