I regret to tell you this, but, the whole truth is: Taking out a diesel and installing a 4AFE will require you to change the entire engine room wiring harness (including the fusebox), the proper 4AFE (manual or auto trans ECU), the fuel pump and the fuel filter, the air intake system, and most def the dashboard harness (which also connects to the ECU). What you have here is 2 entirely different worlds, gasoline vs diesel.
Sorry.
I would not recommend you to undertake this job, unless you have a complete "donor" vehicle for the abovementioned parts.

Where is the idle adjustment on a 1997 Toyota Corolla automatic

no,such thing, the PCM controls idle 100% at all times hot.
when cold some have thermal IAC that runs up to 150f and then PCM takes control via ISC.
this is by uSA laws EPA, here but outside, I am clueless.(so many engine me too lazy to study)
our 1.6L and 1.8L has a dual IAC, (iac and isc all in one)
a thermal IAC and and electric PCM controled ISC
see water pipe pair is IAC
a vacuum leak sure can overwhelm any IAC made.
yes simply cleaning any stuck IAC can fix it.
yes the TV valve in TB stuck open packed up carbon
sure will make idle fail hard !"throttle valve" or stuck throttle cable.

How do I change the distributor

REMOVAL NOTE: Once the distributor is removed, the engine should NOT be turned or moved out of position. Should this occur, please refer to the engine rotated installation procedure. Distributor components — 4A-F engine 88272p61.jpg
Fig. 1: Exploded view of the distributor — 4A-F engine 88272g41.gif
Fig. 2: Exploded view of the distributor — 1993 4A-FE and 7A-FE engines 88272g42.gif
Fig. 3: Exploded view of the distributor — 1996–97 4A-FE and 7A-FE engines 88272g43.gif
Fig. 4: Exploded view of the distributor — 4A-GF engine 88272g44.gif
  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Disconnect the distributor wire(s) at its harness. Loosen the screws holding the cap onto the housing 88272p05.jpg
    Pull the cap and wires off the distributor housing 88272p06.jpg

  3. On the 4A-F engines, disconnect the vacuum advance hoses. NOTE: On some models the distributor wires are part of the cap and can not be separated.
  4. Remove the distributor cap. Label and disconnect the wires from the cap. On some engines it will be necessary to use a flat bladed tool to lift up the lock claw and disconnect the holder from the cap. Fig. 5: On some engines, use a flat bladed tool to lift up the lock claw to disconnect the holder from the distributor cap 88272g45.gif

  5. Carefully note the position of the distributor rotor relative to the distributor housing (also note position of distributor to the engine assembly); a mark made on the casing/housing will be necessary for reassembly. Use a marker or tape so the mark doesn't rub off during handling of the case/housing. Mark the position of the rotor relative to the distributor housing 88272p07.jpg
    Label and remove all vacuum hoses attached to the advance on the distributor if equipped 88272p14.jpg
    If necessary, remove the rotor 88272p08.jpg

  6. Remove the distributor hold-down bolts. Remove the distributor hold-down bolts before pulling the unit from the engine 88272p13.jpg

  7. Carefully pull the distributor from the engine assembly. Remove the O-ring from the distributor shaft. Pull the distributor straight out from the engine 88272p15.jpg

'95 Corolla Engine Question

An engine from another Corolla up to 1997 will fit. There are 2 engines though. 4A-fe (1.6L) or a 7A-fe (1.8L) They look similar but run different Engine managment computers. The 4A-fe uses a 3spd auto trans and the 7A-fe uses a 4spd auto trans. Also some of the wiring may be different.
Hope this helps.
