Question94 4Runner bad vibration when accelarating,
stops when you let off gas starts back as soon as you push the gas pedal
I was trying this car out to buy, the owner said it started vibrating all of a sudden

AnswerI'm not sure what the problem may be but be very careful before buying this vehicle.
My best guess based on your description is that the driveline may have a problem, maybe an out of balance driveshaft or worn U-joint.
The best advice I can give you is to ask the seller if they will agree to have you take it to a toyota dealer to have it checked before you buy it, this will be at your expense but may save you a lot of grief,and one last word of caution, people generally sell cars because there is a problem that can be very expensive to repair, this truck may have been in an accident,have someone check it out for this problem before agreeing to buy it.
