    My Tacoma is acting up, and My usual shop went out of business. Where is everyone taking their Yotas in Tucson? Its hard to find a shop that wont try to rip you off, and I really don't want to take it to the stealership.

    Tony over at Ramsower's Automotive has been nothing but wonderful for me. He handled my Expedition's power steering leak, which came back, and he honored the previous work warranty and fixed the leak again absolutely free. They also did my timing belt and waterpump job on my GX. Runs like a champ and he gave me a small cash discount. He is super honest does not try to force or trick any charges or work upon you. They do get busy though, they are usually booked a few days to a week out...

    Its sputtering a little when idling at stop lights. and sometimes it loses power when accelerating. Kinda seems like a cylinder is misfiring. And of course it does not do it all the time. I sprayed some mass air sensor cleaner in the MAS, now Im going to try new spark plugs and wires. after that I might need to get it to the shop.

    It may be the throttle position sensor. Had some power problems in my 04. Check engine light came on every now and then before I switched it out.

    Found my sputtering problem. So glad it was an easy fix.
