    This pump was running 4 hours after turning the truck off.
    I managed to tap and wiggle it and it went off. Above the spare tire

    is it the auto diagnostic thing that *starts" a few hours after shut off, or is it constantly running after shutdown?

    Self test, not constant running.

    Check the manual. Routine, typically something like 5 hours after shutoff.

    how long after gas fill? have you ever continue to pump gas at gas station, after gun click off? if not, than it's normal. if yes, than you heading to vapor canister replacement soon, as charcoal soaked with gasoline.

    Anybody that hears something running 5 hours after they shut the vehicle off with think there's a malfunction, bad design. Who reads every page of the manual, Even if one did they don't even remember 5 to 10%
    I'll bet the service adviser's laugh every time somebody calls With this issue.
    I was ready to take it to Toyota

    Well manuals used to show you how to adjust valves but now it tells you not to drink the battery acid.

    Now days vehicles are ridiculously complicated and apparently affordable by folks who aren’t smart enough to own one.
    Referring to the battery acid drinkers.
