    Please Help! I have a 1996 Toyota Tacoma (2.4L, 5 Speed Manual Transmission) I Went to Start my truck & the starter stayed engaged in both the on & off position. ALSO I Had to Put the gear in neutral Because the truck kept Scooting forward & I Had to disconnect the battery to disengage the Starter

    Starter relay could be stuck closed. Pull the relay out, put in a known good relay and try again.

    Could also be a bad (stuck) starter solenoid.
    But try the relay first, simple and cheap test.
