There are several possibilities. The ignition timing may be wrong, or the carburettor needs to be adjusted or both. Another possibility is obstruction in a fuel line, that is a remote possibility though. Have the engine re-tuned and inspected as soon as possible.

I've had this problem with my 2002 Toyota Tacoma Pre-Runner many times and I was told by a Toyota dealership that it may be the mass air sensor because they tend to corrode. I have a few friends with the same truck and they have the same problem. Unfortunately, if you want to replace it, it cost around $300.

On my 1999 Toyota Tacoma when the clutch is pressed in it seems to catch on the floor and other times about half way what does this mean?

This MIGHT be a sign that the clutch return spring is wearing out. I had to replace one on my Tacoma (part ~ $30) when it began to occasionally stick in a position about 2" shy of full return. The pedal (spring) also would make squeaking sounds from time to time. When it was in this (faltering) condition it did not compromise the clutch engagement, however, I was unable to activate the cruise control. You may have found (as did I) that a gentle pull of the left toe easily brought the pedal back in to position. Until you find the replacement part....
