    This is correct the vacuum diaphram shouldn't have any fuel coming out of it unless you unbolt it from the rail.

    On some Tacomas with a certain design it is also possible to flip the MAF around backwards.

    Okay I don't feel much, if any vacum because this vacuum line runs to the intake tube after the filter so it does t get much vacuum pressure

    I'm pulling the valve covers tomarow to inspect the cams.
    I've been working thinking about the igniter but I can't afford to just spend $400 on a new one if it's not going to work and it's a special order part so I couldn't return it if didn't work.

    I would think that the cam and crank sensors would be throwing codes if they were not working.

    I also checked the crank shaft gear today along with the woodruff key and the tone ring- I was told my a Toyota mechanic that those could be contributing factors to my problems- but everything was good.

    I have a spare igniter you could try.

    I think you'd have a miss if the cam or crank sensors were bad, and you're only having trouble at 2,000 rpms & higher. The tone ring was a good idea to check. If the woodruff key sheers, you'll know it way before 2k rpms. When setting the timing- are you lining up the crank mark & the cam shafts? Use dielectric grease on all your connections too.

    Every store is proud of everything they have up here... and the junk yard here doesn't have much for toyotas everyone snatches them up as soon as they get there. But I'm planing to call them tomorrow

    Yes everything is lined up perfectly and I put dielectric grease on every conextor when I did my Moter swap last month.

    Ok. Just checking every possible thing...before you spend anymore $$. Hopefully the MAF will resolve it. You're along ways from the 'Sip!

    I'm not sure what your ignition control module part # is...but Amazon has a couple Toyotas for $80. Napa online was $449, there's no telling what the OEM cost
