1997 Toyota Corolla Long crank with cold engine normal start and operation after warm engine

hi, i would like to advice you check the electronic idle speed control valve and also check engine coolant temp sensor. The ISC (idle speed control valve) is located somewhere below the throttle valve. the engine coolant temp sensor is located near distributor. it has a two wire connection. the sensor connector is usually green

I changed the 02 Sensors on my 03 Mitsubishi Galant do I need to reset anything on my car? It turns on fine but idles low when put in gear and shuts off.

Its a hot start issue.

Can be related to low fuel pressure or problem with crank sensor.


Also it can be weak battery or starter.


But possibilities are to be inspected to confirm what exactly it is.------

Sounds like the Oxygen Sensor could be faulty, or the fuel delivery system is going haywire for some reason (leaky or plugged injector on some cylinders).

02 Toyota tundra won't idle. I put a new battery on and cleaned air filter

sounds like a bad idle control sensor.as long as you're driving it and giving it gas it runs somewhat ok right? it won't idle by itself,or it idles up and down by itself and then dies?thats a sign of a bad idle control sensor,some times they straighten up after the engine warms up and run fine.but eventually go completely bad and won't idle at all. hope this helps and thank you for choosing fixya.com

Check the timing and compression of the engine. It sounds like you either have a blown head gasket or a the timing jumped.
