3rd gen 4runner won't start. Help!

So the other day my runner was running perfectly fine. I stop at a friends house for a few hours. I go to leave and start her...nothing. There is a spark because it wants to start but it is sounds as if there's no fuel pumping. So, I take out the fuel pump and see that there's a hose not connected and was missing a clamp. I put the line back on and put a clamp on it and cleaned it a bit. I drove it home perfectly fine..no hiccups. I go to start my truck the next day and it did the same thing as before. So I figured i might change the fuel filter. I replaced the filter today and still nothing. What should I do next???

Had the same problem. Ended up being a dirty MAF and very dirty IAC.
-MAF - just buy some MAF cleaner and spray away.
-IAC - remove throttle body and spray through IAC (I used the same MAF cleaner)

Here are a few more details about the IAC with pics: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-ge...-iac-pics.html
