    No!
    Tow is probably cheaper than the damage you might cause;)

    And welcome to Tacoma World!

    An obd11 code reader. A scan gauge or ultra guage are sweet little deals that are worth the investment. Or go to a chain auto parts store, most of them will check your check engine light codes free of charge!
