I've owned the identical year/make/model car as yours since new. From afar, I would suggest the following: First, if you've used anything but the Toyota "Red" Coolant, you will build a nasty, blackish, jelly-like stuff that looks like something out of the X-Files. This will play havoc with your idling and your engine might shut down to avoid overheating, because since the coolant is NOT circulating properly, the ECU may shut you down to prevent engine damage. So, first check your coolant (when car is cool, natch!). Another thing it could be, and this drove me NUTS for a few months in July-August of 2001, it could be that the neck of your fuel pump is cracked and taking in air causing the engine to stall out. I found this out by trial and error after replacing every electronic part and sender in the engine compartment. You have to remove the gas tank in your car to get to the fuel pump. There's a hex-shaped valve in the gas tank that allows you to drain it prior to removing it. You'll need to consult your Shop Manual for this, or if you don't have the time or the expertise, it may involve going to an honest mechanic. Let me know if these are either of your situations and I'll keep trying.

4age 16 valve 87/89 model red/black top fuel injected. Runs rich. tried another map sensor no better.

Check element air cleaner, fuel pump pressure, regulating valve, fuel injectors, fuel filter and ignition system.

Looking for engine manual for TOYOTA 1600 16 VALVE 4AGE Called RM-163E and published in 1989

You can get the original Toyota dealer service manual from faxonautoliterature.com. This will have all the info you would need to work on your engine as well as the rest of the car. I have used them before and had excellent service. Hope this helps.

There are many different types of 4a engines including 4a 4af 4age 4agze but the 5a is a 1.5 8v engine the 4a is a 1.6 usually a 16v. a 4age is a 1.6 16v gti engine that produces 129bhp depending on year later models had a little more. both engines are fuel injected and were produced for roughly the same period of time. from my experience a 4age goes on for ever. hope this helps

Defective tachometer and speedometer

Do the following:1)key in the ON position:remove the 7.5 gauge fuse.Tach needle should read "0:". 2)put it back,go on the engine and unplug the green plug on the igniter -the big one,with 5 or 6 wires on it.The needle on tach reading should be zero.If not you have a short circuit on the black wire between that plug and the plug on the conbination meter.3) If the reading is zero with the plug disconnected,the black wire for the tach is short-circuited inside the igniter. I have one available.email [email protected]
