Angry Toyota meltdown

While driving my 86 toyota pickup, it cutoff & left all of my gauges on my dash on. I have replaced so many parts I am fustrated and it still won't start. It has a 22R motor w/carb. I replaced the igniter/coil, wires, sparkplugs, ecu so far. Someone was telling me about a cranksensor, but I am not sure if my truck has one on it. Also I checked the timing chain and it was good.

He has an 86 22R... no crank sensor, no computer.. not MAF to confuse with a leaky air intake.



Maybe your ignition is shorting inside the steering console. Odd for a 22r to cut out completely. Obviously something is causing the motor to lose spark. You sure the coil wire to the distributor didnt pop out Has happened to the best of us, myself included ... real fun on a busy freeway

ECU? ... didnt even read that at first. if its carbureted it doesnt have an ECU.

Might be a fuel delivery problem. The fuel cut off solenoid may have failed and/or a wire broke.

not a lot to go on here

Was the truck converted from a efi to a carb motor ? A carb and a ecu doesn't make sense .
