Toyota 7FGU25 Serial Number 78541

Lift was running rough and replaced the carb back in October. Ran fine for two months now will not stay running. Runs on gas. Can adjust the carb and the lift will run good on acceleration but idles rough. Engine light comes on dash. Jumped for codes and the light continues to flash with no breaks. Can someone tell me if this is a code or are there no codes stored. Thanks.

Hey Step,

I checked my e-mail address, it is correct. Don't put the period on the end. This is a gas unit not duel fuel. I think we found the problem, blown head gasket. Not so bad it will not run but enough that the pressure in the radiator steadily rises. Thanks for the help.

check the wiring to the small solenoid on carb, should have voltage when key is on. if this is a dual fuel check wiring at abcv valve (lots of wires and vacuum hoses under air inlet) code 1 is an lpg truck code so if yours isn't dual fuel you got some thing "outside the box"

easier to ask forgiveness than to ask permission.
Is this a gasoline only truck?
Do you have a digital hourmeter or is it a mechanical one?
I am guessing the code is the O2 sensor being out of range due to the fuel mixture being too rich/lean and we need to go back to the fuel system and look at contamination/fuel quality issues. replace filter, drain tank completely and discard gasoline, flush all contaminants, look at where they are getting their gas from and how they are fueling their machine. If they are filling it with jerry cans from some cheap-gas independent corner station, suggest Esso/Shell and more careful refueling methods. Check your email address as well, my email to you bounced back undeliverable.
