Bought starting fluid and gas and carr will not start? when I spray starting fluid in the carburator it will not start?
Check for spark.
First, I'm not a Toyota representative.
* Take your car to the nearest Toyota dealer/shop.
*** Following is for information only.***
* Starting Fluid???? Did you pour this in the tank or carb? (make a difference)
* Did you read and follow the instructions for this "Starting Fluid"
* There are gas additives to improve performance, clean engine, increase octane, stabilize ethanol, etc.
* I've never heard of "starting fluid" that is poured into tank. (though I could be wrong. Maybe some "newfangled" thing from China? (hey, I'm Chinese so I can say that.)
* Most Engine Cold starts are in spray form usually called "Carb Cleaner", Cold Engine start spray, Or generic Acetone spray. Remove the air filter and couple of sprays in carb tunnel then start car. May need to do it several times in real cold weather.
* If this is not the same stuff you used then you will need to take care down to shop to drain tank, replace fuel filter, clean out carb.
* Be careful and read instructions or ask the counter guy for help.

Quick explanation of your fuel system:
An automotive fuel system consists of everything between the fuel tank and the carburetor or fuel injection unit. This includes the tank itself, all the lines, one or more fuel filters, a fuel pump (mechanical, electric, or both), and the carburetor or fuel injection unit.
With the exception of the carburetor or fuel injection unit, the fuel system is quite simple in operation. Fuel is drawn or pumped from the tank through the fuel line by the fuel pump, which forces it through the fuel filter, and from there to the carburetor/injection unit where it is distributed to the cylinders.
So with that info...try first to clean your spark plugs.
Next, replace your fuel filter.
After that, depending on a carburetor/fuel injection, try an additive that cleans the injectors. For the carburetor, try a half of can of what is called "Seafoam". It comes in a metal can available everywhere, including Walmart. It is worth the $6-8 and also will "dry" out your fuel from water. Very good product.
After that, get back to us and let us know how your Toyota is running.

hey, torque must be done in 3 steps:
1st 22 ft lbs
2nd 43 ft lbs
final 47 ft lbs
use this sequence of tightening:
9 - 3 -1 -6 -8
7 - 5 - 2 -4 - 10

this sounds like the electric fuel pump in the fuel tank has failed, replace the pump and filter togeather.

Sounds like air in the fuel line. Try turning the key ON and pumping the gas pedal (it may take 10-15 times) and then try to start the car. You need to force gas through the fuel lines to dispel the air it was pumping when the car ran out of gas. If it doesn't work the first time, let it rest and repeat by pumping the gas. Best of luck!
