Perhaps a road trip to burn out the old fuel and work the injectors.
Might check a Toyota dealership for the BG 44K fuel system cleaner or call around the auto parts houses in your area.
Do you have Chevron Techron available? Whatever you use, insure you follow the directions carefully... too concentrated may damage the fuel system components.
You'll want to keep a full tank of fuel in the future while it sits idle and unused.
I wouldn't disturb the fuel filter or the pump unless your running lean and diagnostics fail.
Also, insure the oil is fresh.

Use a bottle of Techron to begin with and wait on using the other stuff.
I drive on much worse gas in Mexico than any of you will in Canada or U.S. and have seen how potent this is. Techron usually does the trick, but not always.

also there are BG44k in canada, u just need to go to service places that have BG44K to get it
they do the flush and stuff for u
it can be found on BG44K's website
anyways, if u run chevron techron fuel normally, u would not need BG44K
