I am the second owner of a 1999 LX470 and it has 80K miles.
When I turn the ignition key the engine starts on the first twist,
without me even touching the gas pedal.
Suddenly this morning when I turned the key I can hear the
starter turning but the engine would not ignite.
After a few failures, I tried to depress the gas pedal(old fashioned way)
as I turned the key and it finally started. Once it started
everything was fine and I was able to drive normally.
Any idea what the problem may be?
