    My Tacoma runs normally after a while and before it turns off the slip indicator and the engine light turns on. Then when I turn it on again the engine starts and turns off immediately. My scanner shows PO351 and PO353 (ignition coils), but the ignition coils are good, i have changed the Crank Shaft sensor and the 6 spark plugs. And i still have the problem.

    Please Help Me!!!!

    Is it the same codes each time?
    Or different each time?
    How do you know the coils are good? (They likely are, as 2 going bad at the same time is not typical)
    Have you swapped coils?
    Are you testing for power at the coil?

    IIRC, the coils share a common ground.

    Does the truck always start up, but die soon after starting?

    Respond to the above questions then maybe you’ll get an answer. Check you have good ground from battery negative post to the engine block. Spark plugs are gapped correct, not counterfeit plugs?

    My 2009 Corolla is doing the same thing, just randomly, may be months apart, don’t have knowledge to troubleshoot, fix it myself, just going to drive till it does it and won’t start ever

    You could check the Fuel Pump Resistor.
    A symptom of it going bad is start up and then engine dies.
    I think you can by-pass it to “test” it.
    Or you can actually test it with an Ohmmeter.
    Pretty sure the resistance should be some where between 0.71 and 0.75Ω
