You can retrieve the engine light trouble code from your car by using a paper clip. Repair books on your car will tell you how to do it. Mostly involves jumping two pins in a connector with a paper clip, then count how many times the engine light flashes. The repair book will list each error code number.
The problem finding a scan tool for your Toyota is it's OBD1. There are many different diagnostic connectors through out the years for vehicles older than '96 and not everyone is going to have the right connector for it. It's just easier to use the repair book to instruct you on how to retrieve the trouble code.

When i tried it the light didnt flash at all but most likely i was doing it wrong lol but thanks ill definitely try again
With the car off, connect E1 and T1 together with a bare paper clip. Unless you strip the tips, a plastic coated one may not work. Turn the key on but don't start the car. The CEL will flash and give you codes. Non-stop rapid flashing means no codes are stored.

It flashes twice then it turns off for a second then flashes twice again and stays off for 5 sec. Before flashing again
How do i read for that??

You may want to pull all the temp sensors/switches/senders and clean them up. When I got my Camry the gauge sender was corroded and only showed half temperature as it would blow steam from the overflow.
How many are their?? Lol
I switched one of them. [the one at the bottom of that coolant bar doohickey sorry i suck at names]

There's the single wire temp sender under the coolant neck, the cold start switch on the top left of the neck, a fan switch on the thermostat housing, and I think one more on the neck (I haven't seen my Camry in nearly a year so I'm a little fuzzy). You can also clean the two with vacuum lines that are for emissions that are also located on the neck.
It has been running rich these past couple days...to the point where when i turn the car on it smokes or it reecks of gas or floods too much gas so it drowns out the engine and the car shuts off...? this whole time ive been angry at my cold start injector...lol silly me
