Sorry about the length but I don't know these cars and am trying to include enough info. I hope I've selected the correct section. My daughters 93 V6 Camry has lost power. She brought this to my attention so it's noticeable. I remember the same thing happening to my wife's 92 V6 Camry. We traded that one in on a 99 V6 (that's a whole different story) before I found out what caused the poor performance. I've gone to two shops recently for them to check it out and they both say it's fine; wrong. Both the 92 when traded and the 93 now had/have 110 to 120 thou on the clock. I doubt whether either had a tune-up, ever. The 93 car does not miss even at 5 thou or above and with the exception of a recent stall after start up bout which seems to have cleared up and a stall after a prolonged highway run (4-5 hours), which also seems to have stopped (maybe bad gas), it continues to run flawlessly except for the loss of torque. I'm wondering if the continued ignition system degradation is computer compensated for by retarding the timing because if it was a small block Chevy that's where I'd be looking. The fuel filter was changed with the timing belt 10 thou ago. Anybody got any direct knowledge or ideas? Thanks for your thoughts in advance....Frank
