    Hey guys, so I’ve been chasing down this issue on my Tacoma and I’m still struggling to find the issue. The truck starts up and idles fine and even sometimes drive fine when it’s cold. 100% of the time when it’s warmed up at stop lights or stop signs, the truck begins to bog/misfire only when at drive. When put back in park it idles fine. Just want some input on what you guys think, my next route is putting Seafoam and maybe replacing intake.
    Also to mention, truck has a new head.
    Plz plz plz help! Lol

    parts replaced:

    fuel system is new, fuel pump, fpr, injectors, fuel filter
    New ignition coils, wires, spark plugs
    Replaced tps sensor, o2 sensor, temp sensor, maf sensor, egr valve, new intake hose, vacuum lines, cam sensor

    Is it the same cylinder every time? Sounds like it is running lean on one cylinder. Intake leak, head gasket leak? Did you check compression on all cylinders?

    So that’s my next mission is to do a compression test because I wouldn’t be able to tell you which cylinder, I don’t believe it’s a head gasket leak cause I pulled plugs and all looked dry. Thinking it’s possibly a air issue but will still run compression test

    It's hard to gauge a misfire mystery after all that work. My personal take is that intermittent electrical problems and vacuum leaks cause most of these mysteries (when all else is tried). Engine vacuum is highest when decelerating at higher RPMs (faster revving engine pulls against closed throttle), so check for that pattern in a vacuum issue.

    Tapping wires, connectors and fuse boxes at idle can sometimes find electrical bugs.
