'99 4Runner

So I managed to leave the pavement unexpectedly, ran through some brush, some saplings and what not, enough to mess the bumper up, smash a light, a side window, and do things of that nature. Not good. I can deal with the damage, lucky to be alive.

The big issue is that the truck won't run now. I've crawled all around it, under, through the engine bay, and there is no damage. Nothing that explains why when I start it up it will turn over, run like crap and then stall.
It will run with oscillating idle if I have the accelerator smashed down, which leads me to believe it's a fuel delivery problem, but I don't know how/what could be spontaneously wrong when there is no physical damage evident.

Any tips on where to start looking or if there is some impact sensor system I don't know about... Suggestions to take it to a mechanic are not helpful.

 

Without looking..........

Bent or pinched fuel line

Somethoing caught up on the crank pulley

Air intake hoses bent

 

check your intake hose for cracks/holes

 

Of course. I can bet the intake is blocked up a bit, it was raining and I went through quite a bit of vegetation that could easily have been sucked up into the filter.

And a pinched fuel line is a good thing too, there are no leaks but perhaps a line got re-worked. I'll do some investigating.

 

Intake hose slipped off the airbox. Runs like a champ now. So simple... now if only body work was so easy.
