Very fishy starting issues?
98 taco 2.7 prerunner
Hello all,
I'm really lost on this one. I'm having starting issues with my truck after it is warm. If I kill the engine and start it back up within 10 min or so it fires right up. Also fires back up if I restart it 30 min or so after killing it. The problem lies when I go to start it within the 15 - 30 min time frame after I've previously killed the engine. The engine just turns over. I've verified spark but don't have the specialty tool to check for fuel pressure. If I keep cranking it close to the 30 min mark it will eventually begin to stutter as if it's trying to start and then within a few minutes finally fire up. It seems like an electrical connection/component is continuing to heat up after the engine is off, until it eventually fails and then after the 30 min mark cools back down and is functioning properly. This is the only suspect I can think of. I heard that some computer components can continue to heat up after the engine is killed for a duration of time, such as the contacts for the fuel injectors? Has anyone experienced symptoms like this before?
