the way it sounds it is almost like fuel cut. You may try a new crank sensor. the only reason i say this is that i've seen it twice. once on a 3rd gen runner and once on a taco. both 5vz. the sensor doesn't seem to pick right as the rpms rise and it starts cutting fuel. just a thought.

Well, first off I wanted to say I appreciate all the advice and help, it got me further in fixing it. I got it to stop knocking so badly by cleaning the Idle air control (green block right under throttle body) it was carboned in a fixed position. I cleaned it really well and got it to no longer ping and knock, but still had the cutting out and nose over from 3/4 throttle up. I had someone make me an offer on it that I couldn't refuse, and I have sold it...which I'm sad to see her go, but after 10 years of never letting me down and 193K miles, I'm going to let someone else bitch at her.... LOL. I really think it was down to I needed a new a/f sensor and a crank or cam position sensor.
I'm still going to stay on here, at some point in the future I may get me an older Yota... one of the smaller p/u's... any recommendations on a good long running direction to take on that?
