Does it start but the moment you let go of the key it dies? Some cars have a wire from the starter to the ignition coil that provides power during start up. This will let it start but if the circuit from the ignition switch to the coil is not working it will die the moment you let go of the key. Find the positive on your coil and connect a wire from there to the positive of the batery. If it start and keep on running the problem is between your ignition and the coil. Remember the engine will not stop until you remove the wire from the batery.

You have to take apart the 4x4 hub to get to the lock nut for the bearings then you have to reome the hub and rotor assy,then you have to press the wheel studs out to remove the rotor,then reverse the process.

SOURCE: 1986 toyota pickup starts wont stay running

It seems there is some kind of air entering the carburator where its not required to do so or the idling soleniod switch is malfunctioning, thus not allowing the air to enter for the engine to idle .
Also recheck the vaccum pipes if they are correctly refitted per the schematics under the hood.More over remove the idling switch and blow some air to the hole probabley theres some kind of obstruction over there .

Good Luck.

SOURCE: 1991 Toyota pickup 4WD clutch slipping

There is an adjustment for the clutch pedal under the dash where the push rod goes thru the firewall. There is only aprx. 1/2" of adjustment so be careful when making an adjustment, if your clutch is slipping then you need to shorten the throw of the push rod.

1991 pickup 22re motor starts for 2seconds and then stalls or turns over and no start. Once in a great while will start and stay running but doesnt run smooth. Acts like its running on two or three...

hav you check your plugs after it happens? a black plug will tell it has too much fuel, a wite plug no fuel at all, leads tours a faulty cold start injector, you can also try to keep it alive with carb or throtle cleaner if idles you not getting enougth fuel. keep in mind compresion test, and valve adjust, this engines require it has a regular service.
good luck
