i was at truck haven this march and rolled my truck it was not that bad, but i fliped it over and drove it back to camp after checking all fluids and making sure i wasnt going to light on fire, it ran fine and i was out wheeling the next day (after stripping all the pannels off the front of the truck and replacing both torn motor mounts)when my truck died. i got it started and got back to camp,traced all grounds, positive wire and just about every electrical component. now when i start it up sometimes i can grab the truck and shake it and it will die! oh yea its an '88 toyota pickup, 22re. 5speed 4wd. any help would be great.  

Stop shaking it maybe?

Joking aside, that really does sound an electrical problem, like a loose wire and when you shake it it shorts out... I would look over the electrical again...  

maybe, but dont you think it would be effected all the time and not just every other time i start it, actually its rather random and it comes and goes at any time. oh well i just printed out a wire diagram and i am prepared to pull the whole damn harness out! wish me luck! (its ok im using a formula toy frame to put it back together)  

anybody know a toyota tech?
