HELP!! I parked my 2001 LS430 (outside) in Florida 9 months ago. Disconnected battery and went to NY for 9 months. Upon my return a couple days ago..I reconnected battery and car started and died. When I tried to restart engine...it kinda sounded like the starter didn't want to engage, and like the bendix was spinning but not engaging.
A few minutes later(after praying)...It engaged and car started, but seemed like it wanted to die out, so I left Key in START position for maybe 30 seconds while car was running to make sure it wouldn't die again..and it stayed idling. However, gas pedal is unresponsive. No acceleration at all..
Fuses are intact, but could there be a Throttle Relay that is burned out?
