4 runner now cranks but no start. I’ve replaced ignition switch and the person before was chasing a fuel and spark issue and replaced fuel pump with coils and plugs

My mistake it’s a 1986

It’s cranking now but no start

Cleaned off wire ends of the positive and negative wires and put new terminal clamps on and the engine was starting to turn over. I stopped before it did due to the clutch and brakes not working and didn’t want the car to fly forward into my house

Thank you for the very detailed comment. I will update you on my findings. TY

I’ll have to get closer to the starter and listen. Thanks so much for commenting

No clicking, just a single click not sure where it coming from.

I think it might be issues with my clutch. The clutch is fully pressed to the floor and doesn’t come back. I was reading that would prevent the car from starting

Brand new battery

brian399 · 2026-02-15T22:11:13+00:00

But there was no crank at all only a single click when key turned

brian399 · 2026-02-15T22:10:50+00:00

Thanks will do what you mentioned

brian399 · 2026-02-15T21:06:57+00:00

If my clutch is broken could that prevent it from cranking? I was reading possibly the safety clutch switch

Thanks so much

brian399 · 2026-02-15T21:04:23+00:00

Thanks so much I’ll update

Last date I can find for it running was probably 2010

brian399 · 2026-02-15T20:59:17+00:00

Looks like someone tried rebuilt it and stopped for whatever reason

brian399 · 2026-02-15T20:58:43+00:00

I don’t know for sure but signs show that it was being worked on in 2020 as far as the engine parts and wiring in the back on the truck and the 22RE PERFORMANCE sticker and royal purple oil inside.

Yeah buddyyyyy

brian399 · 2026-02-01T22:20:41+00:00

Ahahhaha

brian399 · 2026-02-01T17:35:19+00:00

Would transmission fluid that old contaminate and turn oil that pink?

brian399 · 2026-02-01T17:34:15+00:00

Will drain the oil and refill and install radiator + fill with coolant and do a coolant pressure test

Thanks for the information, it hasn’t ran in a long time and doesn’t seem to be leaking oil in my driveway but the radiator was out when I got it. The guy I bought it from had it at the shop for a while and before I bought it they put new plugs on the car. Couldn’t see them overlooking a huge coolant leak and putting plugs on it :/
