I have a Toyota Camry 2001, 4 cyl and it starts and run's for 20 sec fine then missfires and shuts down. Seems electrical? What could the problem be?

It is 1-3-4-2 with No 1 being at the timing belt and crank pulley end.

Does not sound serious as long as the car otherwise seems to be doing what it should. Don't drive if the engine is running hot or it is leaking fluids. Start with fuel filter or faulty fuel pump. Could be other things but if the car has had regular servicing then should not be anything major eg broken breather hoses . I would get a mechanical inspection for piece of mind.

their is a shout in one of the wires running from the alternater start at the alternater and work your way back from their. the alternater will test good as it shuts down for safty so the car will not just keep produceing electricity and start burnning wires.

idle control valves are very commend on car if your engine seems to be running lower then 600 rpm idle control valve most commend

its in the kik down cable its sticking

The sensor for the fans is in the rad at the bottom. T-stat may be bad or the rad may be clogged. Cooling system needs attention.

It sounds like the problem is isolated to that one cylider if that is the case you may want to check the compression on that cylinder if it is not electrical and no fuel problems it has to be lost of compression

Check the vacuum line from the brake booster to the intake for leaks or missing/ loose clamps. If it's all intact, look around the booster (big bowl looking thing on the firewall) for leaking brake fluid. If the booster is leaking, it will have to be replaced.
