has the fuel filter been changed?it sounds like you have air leaking into the fuel system from some where.

I had EXACTLY the same issue.

Tried tightening the fuel pipes on the filter, replaced the filter, had fuel pump done etc etc etc.

No one knew how to fix it, including three mechanics (one a Toyota specialist), all the guys on here, a fuel pump technician guy (who made the problem worse).

Good luck mate, I solved my problem - by selling the daft lump!!!!!

Get a diagnostics check done, the info is on here, do a search.

Try tightening the screw on top of the black button on top of the pump primer........

That cured the same problem for one of the lads on here (he just emailed me).

try changing the fuel lines to clear hose that way you can see if it is drawing air in or spray all fuel lines, pump, filters,ext, with wd40 or some highly flammable aerosal , if the engine revs automatically you know there is a leek,
hope that helps
