    Greetings Everyone,

    My name is Tim, I own a 3rd-gen limited 2000 4runner and it has been stalling randomly for over a month now, it stalls while both idling and accelarating, plus my dash does not even show any check engine light or such.
    Please tell me how should I diagnose and fix this problem because where I live, is a thousand miles away from a garage and I am desperate for help, so I would be very grateful for any solution from you guys; please provide detailed solutions.

    Thank You.

    you'll need a garage if you are not handy and don't have the tools
    first i would check the fuel filter, fuel pump, spark plugs, injectors

    Ditto. I believe your model has the external fuel filter on the frame rail on the driver's side. Filter and plugs are pretty easy replacements.
