    Just removed crankshaft sensor and checked resistance, 2,067ohms which is in spec.

    visual inspection looks sketch though. It was dirty and had this white paper/web like material on it. I cleaned it off and it looks like new. I also cleaned off where it sits.

    Camshaft position sensor is in spec as well at 1,080 ohms.

    Solved!

    Battery was only reading 400 cold cranking amps. The new plugs and new battery have made a hell of a difference. I drove downtown taking the highway there and local back. I hit every pothole and no grounds came lose or nothing shorted. Ran smoother than ever and I really appreciate everyone’s help.

    Fuel filter will get replaced next time I’m at the shop.

    thank you, all!

    Keep spraying those fuel filter fittings every day or two. Let the penetrant do its work.

    Seems like Tundras are very sensitive to low batteries.

    I know my truck starts acting goofy with the alarm system which is the first indicator. The second indicator is the slow crank which follows shortly after disregarding the first sign over a few days.

    Now I know to run quickly and put a freshie in.
