Tacoma PreRunner V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 110,000 miles

I'm a retired master mechanic turned aerospace engineer. While my foot was on the brake, the engine revved to full throttle, squealing the rear tires. This event was clearly caused by a faulty electronic throttle control circuit. I shut off the truck. When I started it again, the situation was still there. I shut it off and waited 10 seconds, then started it and it idled normally. I concluded that there was a software glitch. This happened once before about two years ago.
