    OK, Tacoma Picture time... I only have a few.

    Here is what I have for now. The last pic somehow ended up with spots all over it, and I am not sure why...

    The only problem is it won't stay running... I have about 5-8 seconds each start...

    progress has slowed... turns out the frame is bent, so I gotta get it on a frame machine. also... the fuel pump will not stay running while the key is in the "ON" position. Tracked it back to the computer, the tire that is supposed to ground the EFI relay is not grounding by the computer. Once the new computer gets here and I can get it running on its own... then its off to the frame machine.

    The Tacoma is RUNNING!!!!

    Turns out the cab wiring harness was the one that came with the cab. No idea what year the cab actually is, but the wiring was wrong. The plug on the computer end was Grey rather than White, and the pin out was all different... the wires were different colors, locations and everything....

    Changed the harness.... truck fired up. I am going to get it ready today to go to the body shop/frame machine. :D I am back on a roll with it...

    turns out that is something to do with the vacuum for the ADD 4x4 system... that my truck does not have... I have nothing on the front end when I got the truck, so I stripped one at the junk yard, not knowing that it was something I didn't even need.
