I have replaced the engine in my 92 toyota 4x4 with a remanufactered engine from atk engines. It has a fairly rough idle but smooths right out with the slightest bit of throttle. I am not convinced that ive gotten the vaccum lines exactly right I have checked for leaks and couldnt find any, however if I pinch off the line running to the fuel pressure regulator it smooths right out. Any ideas?

Sounds like your fuel pressure regulator may be leaking....Pull the vacuum line off and check for fuel.

Which way do I shift my 3L Toyota hiace fuel pump for a smoothe idle it starts fine but idels rough and moves off weak ?

Best to have codes read if the engine light is on. start up and rough idle are different. Rough idle can be different things. When is the last time you had a tune up?

7.5 l engine. Starts well but idles a bit roughly. Check engine light illuminates intermittently but does not stay lit constantly. Thanks!

If you have a check engine light the best thing is to read the codes and find out what the problem is. Many shops like Aamco read codes free.

My 91 oldsmobile 98 runs rough in idle but when driving run smooth.

Rough idle is a very common problem on 4 cylinders, but I believe the 98 Regency has a 6 cylinder in it, right?

Sometimes the coil packs get iffy, and sometimes the EGR Valve gets a leak in it causing a rough idle.

When the accelerator pedal is depressed, it can change things so that the engine seems to run smoothly.

However, I would look for codes to see if anything intermittent is occurring in the engine that may need attention.

The OBD-I scanner can help to diagnose the problem, if anything is out of specifications on the engine in question.

The owner will have to find a technician that has such a scanner.

Engine idling rough after spark plug replacement on a 92 Toyota Pickup V6 3.0L

I would guess that you instaled non-Toyota plugs,The OEM plugs are >>>critical<<< to proper performance. As a Toyota Service Manager, I cannot stress that point enough.

V6 engine idles rough after restarting, then smooths out

My first guess would be a dirty carb/fuel injector set. Run some fuel cleaner through the tank and see if it gets better. You might have to do it through a couple of tanksful. How long since you've had a tune-up? It might just be that time.
