My truck has too much something in the engine. The engine won't crank. I roll started it after having my friend drag me. And it sputtered like a you know what. Drove it around the block and let her idle. It was spitting gas and sputtering during idle. I will post videos.

Which motor and year you have? If it isnt cranking, I would look at starter, starter relay, and the battery first.

Sorry for the non specific post. Toyota pickup 94 22re. I got it cranked after dragging it with an f150 in gear. Starter and battery are good. It turned over perfectly. Just too much gas in the lines or something. The exhaust would spit smoke(smelled just like gas.) and not crank. But this morning it cranked but even on idle, it blows gassy smoke. It's not blue and not rad fluid either. I'm thinking it may be a bad fuel filter or pump? Would those cause problems like this?
Thanks for the help

The way you are describing it, it sounds like it is flooding to me. If that is the case I would say an injector is stuck open or the Cold Start Injector is stuck open. I would try and unhook the CSI electrical connector and see if that changes anything for a quick check.

If it is just hard to start, I would suspect the fuel filter is clogged which would make it hard starting and would not cause flooding. I have seen fuel pumps that are going bad to eventually it wont start at all. Usually running a tank to low on fuel is what causes them to go bad. I fill up at the 1/4 tank mark and never go below 1/8th tank.

Fuel pumps are not cheap, but I get mine off of ebay an have had great luck with them. $150ish at a parts store, $35 or so off of ebay. Fuel filters I just get at the parts store. I use a quarter inch drive ratchet and extention to get to the bolt that holds the filter on just above the starter, that way I dont have to pull the starter to get the filter out.
