2005 Toyota Corolla Ran out of gas Filled it you got it started again long enough to get home Now you can start it and it will idle for a couple minutes then die Any suggestions on What is up?

I had a similar experience. Toyota told me it was due to carbon in my throttle body which they cleaned for about $300 too much. However, they also replaced the engine computer while they were at it (under warranty). A coworker told me today thst they recently changed his engine computer due to a rough running problem. I believe Toyota has a widespread problem with their engine computers and they aren't acknowledging it (and passing some of their costs back to us). Soon you won't be able to tell them from Ford or Chrysler.
