89, V6, Doesn't Start

[heyfarmer]

just bought this truck, it was running but rough, it had a rag stuck in the fuel tank. i put a new fuel cap on, new gas and a can of dry gas, bought a new fuel filter and turned on the fuel pump while the filter was off, got clean fuel and a strong stream. put new filter on, and replaced dist. cap and rotor, got good spark, and fuel pressure at the fuel rail. it seems to be not getting fuel, it trys to run when i'm cranking on it, and pumping the accelerator. got 115,000 miles, ext cab, 2 wheel dr. new air filter. any suggestions would be great, thanks.

Not to insult your intelligence, but did you put the cap and rotor back on according to their old position? Rough running prior too could have been bad gas or dirty injector heads. Hope it helps.....

Yes, i made sure the cap, rotor and wires was on correctly. I thinking something with the EFI. Where is it and what do you replace or check for. Thanks

there is a box like part just to the right of the master cylinder in my 4x4 V-6 xcab Toyota 1989 pickup [the part is on the driver's side; its nearer to the back firewall, not the air firtler box]

the box has a wire that runs from the box thru the firewall [the wire seems to run right in back of the dash board where the speedomoter is]. anyone know what this part is?

anyone ever have it replaced? if so, what did it cost?

i get a funny noise when i first start the 4x4, put it in drive, and start to move. the noise seems to be coming right from around that box like item.

after i drive the 4x4 for 15-20 minutes and its all warmed up, the noise seems to fade away [or at least it is much much much harder to hear].

could that boxlike item be the speedomoter box and cable???

help!!!!
