I don't know what year you are working with, but I have an 87 that was doing the same thing. I converted the air filter to a K&N system and did away with the old filter box. The problem did not go away. I talked to a Toyota specialist and he told me in the top of the mass flow sensor there is a plug that you need to drill out. There is an adjustment screw that regulates the air mixture with the gas. It is located on top of the mass air flow sensor that connects to your air filter box.

There are two things that can cause this either there is a fuse that blew that connects both the window and the radio or its two seperate issues fuse to stereo and the window regulator went bad or switch on the window. First thing I would do is check the fuses if you confirm the fuses are all good you will want to diagnose the wiring on the stereo and ensure there is a good power and ground. If the window has 2 switches make sure its not locked if thats a option then go ahead and ensure it doesnt work on either switch if not you will want to get the door panel off and check for power and ground at the regulator if there is most likely the regulator went out and will need to be replaced. You can get the window up use a board to allow it to stay closed until you get a new regulator. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you. Thanks for using fixya!

This is a weird one. You shouldn't have been anywhere near the ******. How about the clutch fluid reservoir and cylinder? Maybe it got knocked around, or somehow drained to where it can't disengage properly. Can't think of anything else, unless it's an automatic, then it's probably a vacuum hose you forgot to hook up.Let us know what you figure out.
