Running Rich Bank #1
Well just purchased my first 4runner (1999 Highlander) and after 1 day of ownership it is in the shop
After driving and warming up the engine I get a CEL and the truck will stall and not restart. At first it would restart with some coaxing from the gas pedal and now it will not start at all. I am getting some serious pinging, sputtering and finally stalling.
I had to have it towed to a local shop, hopefully they will be able to help me out.
Anyone else have these systems? I did some searching put didn't find much...
Any help would be appreciated!!!

CELS would be different than 4Runner anyway right ?

"Highlander" was an unofficial name given to the "Sport" by the dealers.
I had tha same trouble number and mine was the MAS airflow sensor. The code is vague and could be a couple of things.
Good Luck!
