AFTER HAVING THIS TO MY MECHANIC FOR THE SECOND TIME, WITH TWO FLATBED TOWING COSTS I THINK IT IS FIXED. I HAVE READ A LOT OF REVIEWS ABOUT "ECM PROBLEMS" FROM CUSTOMERS , THAT TOYOTA ALSO HAD A RECALL ON ECM ISSUES ,I THINK MY MECHANIC FOUND A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM. THE MECHANIC FOUND THAT THE FUEL PUMP WAS NOT PUMPING GAS. THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY IS MOUNTED IN THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK AND IS SUBMERGED IN THE GAS. ONE OF THE ELECTRICAL WIRES GOING TO THE PUMP AT THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AT THE TOP OF THE PUMP WAS BURNED UP( METAL AND PLASTIC PARTS). AS THE USE OF THE PUMP HEATED THIS CONNECTION IT WOULD ARC AND BURN CAUSING INTERMITTENT FUEL PUMP OPERATION. THUS EXPLAINING WHEN CAR WAS COLD IT WOULD START THEN AFTER RUNNING AND SHUT OFF IT WOULD CRANK AND NOT START. REMEMBER THIS ITEM IS IN THE TOP INSIDE THE FUEL TANK(BOOM!). I THINK SOME OF THE SO CALLED "ECM PROBLEMS" WERE REALLY THIS PROBLEM AND NEVER DIAGNOSED. STALLING,LOSS OF POWER AND NOT STARTING. TOYOTA SHOULD HAVE PICKED THIS UP ,BUT IT SEEMS THEY TAKE 4 YEARS TO ISSUE RECALLS.
