i have an 80 that was smashed hard into a tree and rolled a few times. it will turn over if you put gas in the carb but wont stay running. (not getting fuel) i think it is the inertia switch but i do not know where it is. i have read in a few manuals and online and they have just confused me more any help would be appreciated- thanks

 

These are old pickups, not motorcycles-there isn't an intertia switch on them. If you smashed hard into tree and rolled in a few time then I imagine that you have more to worry about then a switch. Try the fuel cutoff solenoid first

 

thanks for the quick reply. i will have to look harder this weekend because i did not see the solenoid the other day when i was looking for the non-existent inertia switch. but i am pretty blind and was not looking for the solenoid intently. thanks for your help

 

Fuel shut off solenoid is in the carb. Just follow to wires to the carb and you'll run into it.

 

Do a search on here about Inertia switches.

No Toyota EVER in the history of Toyotas ever has/had an inertia switch. Ever.
