could be a choke problem or a fuel leak. There may be a risk of fire. I would let a mechanic take a look see. http://www.autozone.com/servlet/UiBroker?UseCase=S001&UserAction=viewSimpleDiagInfo&Parameters=info
A bad relay switch could be the culprit if dash lights remain on after engine starts in a Toyota. Cold weather can also cause these lights to stay on after the engine starts.
Petrol & Gas engines are spark ignited engines where as diesel engines are compression ignited engines. Petrol engines works with explosion of fuel air mixture due to spark from spark plug inside the cylinder. Diesel engines works with combustion of fuel air mixture due to compression, compressed mixture attains a very high temperature which exceeds the flash point of diesel and starts burning inside the cylinder and the hot gases after burning of fuel misture exerts force on piston which makes the diesel engines work. Diesel engines are highly efficient than petrol engines.
Because naturally petrol sets light to the spark in the car and the heat energy takes it away and sets a little bit of the cars with fire and then from that the engine starts!
After 50.000 miles or so. Also if the car starts to use more fuel than is normal, or if the engine starts to lose power or if the engine starts to get too noisy.
It depends what engine. The range starts at 136HP (diesel) and ends at 240HP (petrol, 3.2 litre V6).
The battery provides the electric power to turn the starter which turns the flywheel which turns the crankshaft which moves the pistons and petrol is injected from the carburetor or fuel injector with the spark plugs providing the spark to ignite the spray of petrol to start the engine
If you remove the large (3-4" diameter) rubber tube that starts at the airbox and ends at the engine intake, you will see the throttle plate a couple inches inside the bore of the throttle body (where the hose was attached).

If the check engine light is flashing the engine is misfiring. Most likely a bad ignition coil.
Pump, pipe, petrol tank.
valve cover was leaking slightly before the power loss, and the engine has 140,000 miles on it.
