took a trailer load to the dump, no issues, on the way home it got a little warm [1/4-1/2 from cold]. all was fine until I got back home and stopped, that's when the engine stopped. I started it back up with not problems how ever now the motor will only stay running if I give a little press on the accelerator or turn on my A/C. acceleration is 100%, no noises no smoke no loss of any power. To try and correct this rough idle then die I have replaced...
fuel filter, timing belt and all pulleys, water pump, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, used a can of break clean over the entire top of the engine to listen for a vacuum leak with A/C on and the RPM did not change. OBD1 - code - "TPS inoperative". Replaced with new TPS and now have 0 codes yet the idle is rough until it shuts off just as before. I cleared the codes by removing the "15 inj" fuse for 30 seconds and replaced it then took it out to the interstate 99 North. 2% traffic so I opened it up. I drove to Merced, 60 minutes at 70-85 mph then back. Not one time did it go more then 1/4' past the cold line! got back home to the same as when I left. Does anybody have any ideas? the Toyota dealer is closed because of the Corona virus so for two weeks I have been hit and miss.
