Just a quick update, I'm still working through the other things.
the code 31 didnt show back up after clearing the codes but now I have a different code, 24 to be exact.
according to http://www.troublecodes.net/Toyota/ that is my intake air temp sensor? wheres that located? I haven't found anything like that

(And I agree; if crimping the return hose with a vice-grips improves running, you should check it. And lay off the vice-grips; they'll damage the hose for sure, and fuel hoses are something you'd like to not damage.)

Well its been over a month since I last visited the forum, I got frustrated with everything going on and not being able to find anything out.
Anyway, I finally broke down and just had my yota towed into the local dealership's service department to have them figure it out. It took them all of an hour and a half (which after the last couple of months I've spent on this problem seemed pretty dang good) to tell me that I was missing my intake air resonator.
I always called it the intake air silencer and I had removed it and capped it off to create a little extra space in the engine bay. I guess my cap must have fallen off somewhere because they put the stock box (which I luckily kept after i took it off) back on and it worked marvelously!
So I've been driving it around actively (i still was a little uneasy about it) for about a week now and it has been great to have a vehicle again. Anyway I just wanted to post here so that if anybody else has the same problem they can find this and not have to pay $150 for a technician to tell them they're missing an airbox.
Thanks to everyone who helped out, sorry if I got frustrated with anybody
