Engine Problem?? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

My 93 V-6 Camry has been idling really low when the engine is warm. What actually controls the idle in fuel injected cars. I thought it was the IAC. I cleaned it along with the pcv valve to no effect. It idles roughly about 400-450 RPM'S. Any Ideas??

Hah! Mine idles low and rough sometimes too! Usually after driving a while. It's stalled a couple of those times also.

Do the seafoam yet? lol! Mine improved quite a bit after that. I also cleaned out the throttlebody, didn't notice much diff. Anybody else got ideas?

Unplug the Oxygen sensor, then Shor the battery for 2 seconds exactly. when that is done take the oil cap off and then add 1 quart of water. You should be all set after that

check what your temp gauge if it looks low and idling odd then check your temp sensor.

mine has idled kinda low too, and its usually at night, with lights on, like id stop at an intersection, and it would idle kinda low, and slightly viberate, then id tap the gas (in neutral) ad id see my headlights brighten up...strange, might be too much load on the alternator or something, i guess its just a qurek of our cars.
