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.

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.

I used to have to do this once in a while. Especially on very cold temperatures like early morning and late night. But my problem was occuring because of my VSS wasn't working. My car was also idling at 1200 before too. But after I replaced my cluster it solved my idling issue and cold start up problems. BUT like I said it was because my VSS was out but I'm guessing yours is good. Just throwing ideas out there. -------------------- |
