not so old tacoma

Hi all,,,told this is the way to start,,,, got a nice ‘98 Tacoma,,, running into trouble lately,,,engine will race suddenly,,,or ‘hiccup’, sorta like a short pause then racing, at times RPM’s ( speed) from 60 to 45 and then shoot up again almost in an instant,,,check engine doing a dance during these issues,,,,replaced plugs, wires and fuel filter,,,,,,,gut feeling it’s in the electrical system somewhere,,,any all help welcomed,,,,,,,mileage on the Tacoma less than 235k

 

When were the vacuum lines last replaced?

 

Also check and clean your MAF sensor and throttle body
