    My 2012 Tundra with 55,000 miles will not start. The engine turns over and tries to start but appears to be running on 2 or 3 cylinders and then dies. Any suggestions?

    Put an OBD scanner on it and see if it pulls any codes.

    The OBD scan found fuel pump inoperative. Checked fuel pump relay, not getting power. Found defective fuse going to fuel pump relay. New mini fuse fixed the problem.
