Camry starts and dies... Help?

[bighoe]

Alright. Long time since I've posted but I am coming here for your guys' knowledge. So my Gen 3 Camry with 167,xxx mi. twice in the past two months has just died on me after I started it. I would start it up and it will die right away. It will take another two tries for it to start correctly and idle fine. Anyone know what may be going on? Any help with my question would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Possibly the same situation i had, starter problems, the solenoid, but mines didnt die on me so im not sure

I had this problem. Try in this order:

1. Clean out your throttle body (search for DIY)
2. Test fuel pump rely switch (this solved my stall problem)
3. Others have said on this forum, it was their ETC senor

could be your distributor or rotor, fuel injectors, there's several things that it could be, try to take it to a shop or the dealership to find out for sure

My bad, its been a while since I've posted here. I just wanted to get the question out and see what response I got. But, you're right. Thanks for the help so far guys, I know what I'm doing after work.

I'm voting for fuel pump possbility....

has it stalled while the car was in motion? or only immediately after start?

Thats a good thought. It will only die right after start, not while in motion... (knocks on wood

I think you may be right.......that was one of the things that happened with my camry when mine died after winter storage
