I'm in Maine now, and have been driving my daughter's Toyota Tacoma. It's a '99 model, with a 3.4 liter engine.
When you start it you have to give it a bit of throttle or it dies. Just a bit of throttle and its fine. After that the idle if fine. When I'm driving, already moving, and give it gas, I can feel it hesitate, bog down, before it starts to accelerate.
One person has told them it's an O2 sensor. Could this be the problem, or might it be something simpler, like a clogged fuel filter? My vote is to go with the fuel filter since it's cheaper, and we're pretty much guessing anyway.
Opinions welcome.
