What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Efi fuse is good. Didn't check any others

 

Hmm, sounds like you might have to get the tow if you're gonna diagnose further to be safe. You sure you didn't run out of fuel, bashed fuel tanks aren't exactly known for gauge accuracy or function

 

Sounds like you ran low on Blinker Fluid.

Seriously though, I’d check a fuel line to see if your pump shit the bed. I had mine go out and during diagnostic, it was the last thing anyone suggested because our trucks pumps ‘never go out’

 

In the process of using hybrid mode to get past the guardrail to pull further off the road.

 

Less than 500 miles on the pump. Not ruling it out but not thinking it's that. I loosened the FPR and had pressure at the rail. Not sure how much but there was pressure

 

Does the fuel pump receive power when the key is in the run position but not engine isn't running? Or is it momentary?

 

When the ECU senses crack movement it triggers the pump, must be cranking to hear the pump unless you jump the relay on manually

 

Conveniently I have a jumper for the power outlets. I'm assuming the same pins would correspond to jump the fuel pump relay

 

I'd assume so, they're usually the more robust "high current" pins on toyota style relays

 

Efi relay is the fuel pump relay correct?

 

Not sure what tools you have, but pull a spark plug and check for spark. If you have spark, and pretty sure you have at least some compression, whats left is fuel.

 

I'm hoping it just puked out the breather or something. I replaced the fluid before winter so it might just be from that. The spot on the driveway is about the size of my palm and doesn't look super fresh. I'll figure it out next week when I do my oil change

 

I'm fairly sure it is the circuit opening relay but I do not remember for sure.

 

If I'm reading the schematic right, with the ignition in the run position I should be able to jump the circuit relay. If I had better service I'd post the schematic.

 

You can usually crank the engine and hear the pump for a second afterward. Also does your tach move a bit when you crank?

 

Tac doesn't move. I've never noticed the pump

 

Crank position sensor?

 

That's what I'd be leaning toward right now

 

There should be continuity between two of the three pins right?

 

Nvm. The resistance is within spec
