Tacoma starting issues.

Check fuel pressure.

 

Will do, I need to pick up a gauge.

 

It’s not as simple as you might think. There is no pressure test port. You need specific fittings and hoses to tee into the pressure hose. Do not dead head the pump.

It looks like this guys method is just deadheading the pump. If I had a T though it would work?

 

Yes, that guy is deadheading the pump. That’s hard on the pump and doesn’t give you correct readings. However you do it, it needs to be teed into the system. If your problem is intermittent, you should consider duct taping the gauge to the windshield.

 

Just to update. I ended up getting another key for it and I haven’t had the issue since.

 

Just for those that follow along. Here is the correct way to check fuel pressure.
