Exclamation Car dies, bogs down, wont start...

Well guys my car has been acting up a lot lately. Sometimes when I start the Camry it dies after being on for like 3 seconds. When I accelerate the car bogs down and goes to very low RPM’s and I feel like its going to die… Sometimes the car dies when I am at stoplights, which is awful. Also sometimes is takes a good solid 30 seconds or so to start the car back up after this happens.

Any suggestions for a fix?

Please pictures would REALLY help out.

do your rpm's fluctuate wildly upwards as well when say at the lights? does it stall mainly when hot or cold? Could be your ECT sensor - happened to mine it was faulty and caused wild rpm fluctluations, stalls (very embarassing at lights) and hard to restart when at normal operating temperature.

If you're driving like this be careful if the car bunny-hops, you could damage your transmission/clutch as I did!

good luck.

check fuel filter(s). Bogging down like than usually happens when the engine is starved of fuel. dirty filters will only allow so much gas to pass and acceleration will require more than can pass and therefore the engine bogs down as its not getting enough fuel to the injectors.
