why did my taco sh*t itself?

i was driving around town today just playin around in my taco. on one straightaway i decided to floor it, so like usual, i put the ECT on, along with overdrive off, and when i began to decelerate, i turned ect off and od back on, but when i did that, the power steering shutdown, nearly every light on the dash came on (check engine, transmission light(a/t), battery, oil temperature) so i pulled off to the side of the road, turned it off and when i started it again everything was fine.

what i'm wondering is why this happened, i've done this kind of stuff before but the truck didnt die like this. any ideas? thanks.

-excuse my grammar, i had to type this on my phone

 

Way WAY w a y to many variables . . . .

But

I'm banking on a Loose nut behind the wheel

 

i once had a old toyota truck that had so much torque the chassis twisted coming off the line

 

holy hell, i woulda shit myself if that happened to me.

 

Probably some random miscommunication in the computer. Not sure why you would turn on ECT and od off to floor it. When I floor my truck I proceed to touch the gas pedal to the ground. That is all you need to do. Works every time.

 

ibtl

 

reboot

 

why thread lock, jw?


probably your idle air control valve or mass airflow sensor

 

Do you drive it like that often?

 

he could been flooring it up to speed, just sayin (quick op edit post)

but just throwing ideas chris, thats what happened when mine went out

 

hey, tryin to help him cover his ass so he can get a lil help

 

share, im hungry

 

im lactose intolerant ohhh score

lol i like where the thread is slowly veering

 

I think our smartass comments ran him off.....

 

If you actually WANT help then repeat it and let us know what happens.

Duplicate the probem consistantly then change the variables one at the time.

I believe at TPS 0% throttle input (decell) the computer kills all fuel to injectors until engine RPM's drop below XXXX RPM's. Push the OD on button at the exact time prompting an up shift right before the computer signals the injectors could cause an additional 500RPM or so drop and no fuel condition that the ECM could not imediatly correct for. Could also be the mass air / Iac as mentioned earlier. Or even a ground issue, But I would suspect the switches had play in this one.

 

yall talk like you've never floored your truck. i open the throttle up on mine quite often.

 

What in the hell is that?
