HELP fast

Alright I'm a newb with 3.0's. Here's the deal it HAS to be running in an hour or i'm screwed. Last night worked SWEET no problems what so ever, havn't had any yet with the truck, but this morning i went to pull it in the garage and it won't start, just keep's turning over. Any idea's? Last night i was driving with the gas light on, and it's pretty cold so maybe a gas line froze? I used to carb's where ya pour some gas in and away ya go

Alright, I just came in with (edited for F bomb) with it and she's getting fuel, I don't think it's getting spark, what could it be? computer maybe? the computer has been getting damp from a leak i used to have in my wheel well

So it ran last night fine. Now it does not?

So how do you now know it is getting fuel? How do you know it is now not getting spark?

You also might curb your F bomb dropping before you get a lot more help than you want.

Yup, fine last night, but not this morning?

I know it's getting fuel because
a) i could smell it after turning it over
b) I loosened the bleeder and had my friend pump the pedal and she was squirting'

Well i guess i'm not 100% sure, but pretty sure, I'm only assuming it's not getting spark

Try ebay or post up on here that you are in need. Getting one from Toyota= $$$$$. You could probably find a good deal on a used one.
