I have a 02 camry xle and it surges when I deselerate. I have used fuel cleaners and injector cleaners but nothing seems to get rid of it. No codes are coming up anywhere in the system. I am at a loss what to try next. Also, the car is only getting 23 to 28 mpg on average. Any thoughts?

Have you checked for vacuum leaks? They are a common cause for surging. there's about a dozen of them. :( with a cool/cold engine... and with the engine running, and a can of carb clean in hand.. spirt some carb cleaner by the hoses/ connections when the engine revs up you have located the bad connection/hose.
Maybe someone else also has some ideas.
But that's where i'd start.
Best to you.

SOURCE: check engine light on

I had to do some digging to find this info: The code is P2716, which is a problem with the 'transmission pressure control solenoid D or it's circuit.' It is located on the transaxle valve body. There apparently is a technical service bulletin (TSB) # 1406 concerning this. If your Corolla is still under warranty, the dealer will fix it, which is, according to what I could find, replacement of the computer that controls the transmission. The bucking problem you described may have actually been a transmission shifting problem, a symptom of this code the cars computer threw. If you did get some debris drawn out of your gas tank due to the low level, the injector cleaner might help, but it has nothing to do with this code. I would recommend you have the fuel filter replaced (to address the low fuel tank, possible debris drawn into fuel line issue), and check w/ the dealer about the TSB, it covers '05 thru '07 Corollas.

SOURCE: Transmission Fluid leak (1997) Toyota camry XLE V6

There are a few places it could be leaking from, first it could be a cooling line leaking, secound if its got a detent cable it could leak from there, third it could be leaking from dip stick tube, forth oil pan could have a hole in it or gasget is leaking, fith front pump seal or rear seal could be leaking. Everything can be fixed with trans. in car except front seal witch requires trans to come out.

SOURCE: 98 camry engine light on w/misfires & system too lean

take sample of your fuel into clear plastic bottle from fuel line
is there any water present?
this can cause these codes and then not go on storing codes for other bank even though that bank will be missfiring also due to water & P0300 Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected being logged
check all connections to coils/leads & wiring connectors
due to miss fire codes for cyl 1,3,5 all on the same bank
also look and check for air leaks on that bank (hose knocked off or splithose)inlet manifold gasket,brake booster etc...
3 injectors being blocked slightly on same bank posible!!!
check wires and signal

was it running like this b4 tune up & repairs?
this is what codes are
P0170 Fuel Trim Malfunction (Bank 1)
P0300 Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
P0301 Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected
P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
P0305 Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected

the last code is for trans due to misfire/running lean on bank 1 probably a torque problem code

Why does my 2001 Toyota Camry exhaust manifold glows hot.

They all do, they are bathed with flames from engine combustion many times a second. They often glow a nice cherry red. The heat keeps the o2 sensors and catalytic converter clean.

My Camry starts but black smoke belts out ..over fueling 1993 2.0l

How long since a tune-up? Can you check for applicable trouble codes? Use a gage and check proper fuel pressure. Check that the pressure will hold for a bit, everything off.
Smell of crankcase oil dip-stick, if it smells like gas, I wouldn't drive it till you fix the problem and change oil and filter as many times as it takes to get rid of the gas.

P0172 and P0175 after replacement of cats and rebuilt injectors

Possible solutions include: Inspect all vacuum and PCV hoses, replace if necessary Clean the MAF sensor. Consult your service manual for it's location if you need help. I find it's best to take it off and spray it with electronics cleaner or brake cleaner. Make sure you are careful not to damage the MAF sensor, and make sure it's dry before reinstalling Inspect fuel lines for cracks, leaks, or pinches Check the fuel pressure at the fuel rail Check the fuel injectors, they may be dirty. Use fuel injector cleaner or get them professionally cleaned/replaced. Check for an exhaust leak before the first oxygen sensor (this is unlikely to cause the problem, but it is possible)

1994 Toyota Camry XLE replaced fuel pump & filter car starts & idles but boggs out and cuts off when pressing gas pedal?

have you pulled codes or checked the fuel pressure? It could be a host of things, like a clogged air filter restricting the flow of air into the engine, a bad air meter, clogged injectors, etc. Engine codes will help you start narrowing things down.

Has the engine air filter ever been changed?

Engine surges like it going to stall, then starts racing.

Check your 02 sensor, this could cause those symptoms, let me know if this helped, thanks mike from fixya.

Runs rough till warmed up. Hesitates. I put a new

Ok, you got new 02 sensors, that is good, Now check timing, vacuum hoses for leaks, check for headgasket leak with compression test, Check or change fuel filter and plug wires. If fuel injected, try using injector cleaner and you can also remove one injector at a time to make sure it is not leaking or plugged. You can also test throttle position sensor and idle position sensor with an ohmmeter to see if they are good.

Inconsistent idling on 1997 Toyota Camry xle V6

change fuel filter, add a can of SEAFOAM to tank of PREMIUM this 1 time. you have EGS(ethanol gas syndrome), and sounds like its very bad in your car. The corn by-product in your fuel creates a goop and puts lots of water in every part of your systems. you egr valve and your engine valves are heavily carbonized right now and need help.<p>
Your injector spray is next to nothing. Your ECM controls the amount of fuel spray to your engine, and it the injectors are partially clogged, it tells the injectors to spray more to keep up;thus causing flooding.<p>
I know it's alot to take in; but trust me, it's not fatal.<p>
You may have to change your fuel filter again at 500 miles to get the last of it out, so if you do, you do.<p>
Add SF every 3-5000 miles after this, and it will keep everything clean,unclogged, and carbon clean. GOOD LUCK

Can't find fuel filte on 2005 camry

I would doubt that your fuel filter is dirty. The car runs better when the injectors are cleaned, as the deposits were removed during the cleaning process that caused poor atomization of the fuel. The fule filter is in the tank, and a really expensive procedure. In short, the fuel filter would be the LAST thing I would change.

My 2000 chevy 350 skips while drivng on highway no code

A fuel injector cleaning should be performed. Varnish build up will cause the injector to spay an abnormal pattern. The fuel will not be atomized properly and cause a missfire condition. Also, excessive carbon build up on the intake valves will absorb fuel meant for the combustion chamber that will cause a minor lean missfire condition.
Your favorite repair shop with the proper injector cleaning machine will be able to do it for you or you can try a couple of fuel tanks full of "combustion chamber cleaner".
The large bottle of Cheveron combustion chamber cleaner works very well. I have tried a number of other cleaners, but the Cheveron seems to work the best.
Good luck and let me know how it comes out.
