I have a 2008 Tacoma with 85,000 miles on it.
I started it up this morning and it ran for about 2 seconds and died. Did this about 15 times before i gave up. I would even give it gas right on start up and it would still die.
There was no lack of battery power.
What could possible problem be?

Fuel pump, injectors, fuel filter clogged?

Take some carb cleaner and a toothbrush and clean everything you can reach in the carb. See where you are after that.

I had a truck do this one time and it turned out to be a bad plug wire.

Dirty idle air control valve could also be the problem. Its easy to get off and clean so I would try this first and see if it works.
