[2000taco]

here's what happened, it happened twice to me, the first time was around the same month last year.
i have a 2000 taco & i had it sitting for about a week i never did start it when i had it sitting. well i go to start it and it would not turn, the engine sounds like the timing cain busted? i was like dam! so i call the dealer and they had ot towed. they said the vapor canistor locked up on me and when they had the truck it started up just fine.
now the second time it happened same thing,it would not turn over. so i had it towed again and but now they dont know why it's doing this and think i just flooded my truck(fuel injected) and made me pay the towing bill.
what the heck is going on?

Actually..I never had that happen..but while we're on the topic of weird things happening:

When I first got my truck, I was driving up the interstate at around 75mph and all of the sudden my air bag light came on!! I sat way back in my seat, hoping that the bag wouldn't deploy. That was at around 1900 miles. It happened again a little ahile after..and haven't seen it since. VERY strange. Anybody else ever have that happen?

hey jeff im the guy that emailed you about the djm kit on your taco remember? and i said when is your site coming up?. i gotta say dude this is a kick a$$ site man i gotta hand it to you man great job! but no that never happened to me (airbag light) just that sound that made me think the cain was busted twice. i finally got my 3/4 djm kit we'll be installing it next weekend.

Happened to me today, cruising home from work and there's the airbag light on from out of nowhere, I haven't been back out and started the truck again this evening to see if it's still on or not. I've only had this truck for a little over a month, so I don't know if it's ever done it before or not. Weird, ...hope it's nothing.

My air bag light is always on........probably because i took out the driver and passenger side air bags........who needs em.

 

[CASlim]

Didn't yours come with a shut off switch for the passenger bag?
