99 tacoma engine / fuel problem

ok just to update you guys i got it fixed now. timing belt had jumped one tooth on both cams. looked like water pump was going out and had all kinds of hard crud in there from the water pump so figure a piece might of got in between belt and jumped timing before it spit it out or broke it up. anyways maybe post can be used by someone for a future reference.

i had the TB cleaned after the problem started. Nothing has been done to motor besides a plug and plug wire change about 20 thousand miles ago since truck was new. well besides oil changes and air filter. I seen it for myself and it was coming out of lower weep hole on water pump till it clogged up and was currently coming out of upper weep hole. it was a pinkish colored gunk.

lol. i was wondering how u thought throttle body made it jump timing. but yeah it still had factory timing belt on it till now and no timing belt work done. ive had truck since new. may of had nothing to do with the hard water pump gunk in bottom of cover may just have jumped some how. timing belt tensioner was nice and tight and timing belt had wear but wasnt that bad looking. had a few miles left in it.
