I'm having trouble with my celica with start up where its not idling where it should be instead it idles around 200 and would shut off. but this only happens on ocassion. I noticed that 2 of my spark plugs are wet with oil so I cleaned them up and the problem still occurs. I called Toyota and was told to replace the tube seals but this didn't fix the issue. Could it be the valve guide seals at this point? Also my car is not throwing smoke BUT it does smell like burning oil on cold starts till she warms up. Any suggestions would help.

not sure but valve guide seals usually come with smoke because it leaks down. how is your ignition timing? How did this all start? Try providing a history up to problem.

The timing is good, as far as how this came to be it started happening after I replaced my spark plug wires because all 4 were ripped apart at the point that they connect to the spark plug. A week after I replaced them the problem starting to occur

Also all I do to get rid of the issue is let it warm up a little and give it a quick rev to 5K and it work good as new

Mine had a similar problem, only difference is it only does it when its really hot outside. In the morning or at night it starts no problem in the middle of the day it seems fuel starved

mine does that too. (i dont know about the oil part, but the dieing on start-up is my car) only when its really hot outside though, and like a post before, a quick rev and its back to normal. (i dont go to 5k though, just to 2 and then hold it at 1.5 for a few seconds) im taking it to my mechanic on monday and let you know if he fixes it and if so, what it is.

yeah, maybe clean out the idle control valve, pull the hose off and see if its sucking much air thru it
