I have a 89 yota 4x4 started the other day half mile going down the road it is lagging not sputtering or nothing just lagging. Changed fuel filter but the truck starts and runs fine no problem what could it be. Check engine light is on

I'm not a rocket scientist or anything, but if you have a check engine light.... wouldn't it make sense to pull the codes??

Also, for the record....your engine dkesn't have a MAF; it's a VAFM (vane air flow meter). They work completely differently.

Yea i can pull the codes juat curious is to see if any of yall had a problem like this and could go right to it. You put the throttle down while in gear feels like you are running half power.

That could be a dozen different things. Pull codes & get back to us....then maybe we can point you in a specific direction.
