Asked by Jacqueline Jul 29, 2015 at 10:53 PM about the 1990 Toyota 4Runner 4 Dr SR5 4WD SUV

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

We have replaced the alternator, the radiator,
the mass air flow, and did a whole fluids
change. It still continues to die off. We have
to have it on neutral and continue to rev it
everytime its on a stop so the car doesnt
turn off. We have taken it to a mechanic that
has says its all these parts yet the car
continues to do be in the same condition.

Check air filter and clean throttle body replace fuel filter if have not done so in a while add fuel injector cleaner to gas tank and use the middle grade or high test gas to help clean out the gum and carbon build up.
