I've been looking for a Toyota Forum for about a week now. Then yesterday I saw a Toyota just like mine on the road w/ a YotaTech.com sticker on the back window and VIOLA....here I am.

Anyway- After cruising at normal speeds and then having to come to a stop, my motor's RPMs take a dive and it almost stalls out. If I just tap the gas pedal, it goes back up to a nice 800 RPM idle. If I do nothing, it will go back to normal in about 5-10 seconds. Has this happened to anyone???

I just wanted to welcome you to Yotatech. As for your question I'm not sure Sounds like a timing issue to me, but I'm sure somebody that knows a lot more about engines will chime in soon. Good luck

 

and timing is a combination of readings from O2 and MAF mostly, right?

 

The 3.0 doesnt have a MAF. It has a VFM. Isn't this a problem with the TPS? Try a search and see what you find.

Oh and welcome!

 

welcome to the forum..just wondering...where did you see the yota and what color,year, model, etc...?? maybe we can find out who you saw!! that would be COOL!!!

 

yeah, what he ^ said!
Welcome!

 

I saw a red, looked like mine, so about a '94 4x4 extra cab. Driving East on Dunlap around 19th Ave. Yesterday 1-21-04 about 5:10pm. Maybe that'll narrow it down. Yota sticker was on back driver side window.

 

Was it KING?

 

Welcome to Yotatech.

My 90 does hte same thing and i have yet to come across the answer, i think it is a timing and or O2 sensor prob. i really have no idea and even less money to go about trying to fix it, any healp would be greatly appreciated from some 2nd gen guru's
