I am currently helping my fiance's mom with her 88 4 runner. It has a 3.0 EFI with 4 wheel drive and a 5 speed. When I first got to it the motor would turn but not fire. I switched out the wires and checked the spark plugs. That got the motor to sputter a bit but it will not run on it's own without the starter. I gave the throttle a bit of gas and the runner fired properly till the gas ran out (maybe 3 seconds on it's own) I checked the fuel pump, it clicks, and pumps like the chilton says. I took of the intake manifold to check the fuel injectors. I didn't have a soundscope but they did give me the proper omes. Just looking for some suggestions on what to check next or maybe something I might have over looked. Thanks for the help.
When you say you gave the throttle some gas do you mean pressing on the gas pedal or actually pouring gasoline into the trottle?
