Does anyone have a suggestion?
 
I have a 96 Camry that has trouble starting after it has warmed up. I have been told that I was flooding it, But I don't give it gas when i start it. I was told it was a blocked fuel filter but when I pulled the old one off it was clear as a bell. I was told that the intake air filter was dirty but I replaced it and no difference.
Anyway if any one has an idea please feel free to chime in.

Hi Plee...I looked on the internet to help you get you question answered, and this is what I found:

"The mos common warm stalls in camrys are due to one of the three following causes:
1 dirty EGR valve
2 dirty Idle control valve
3 defective Engine coolant temp sensor (erratic and tricky to pin point on syntoms)

I would venture that your stall/hard to start after car is warmed up, is cause by the ECT. I just would change it, very simple job, unscreew the old one and install the new one (wiyh a little of tefon in te thread), no need to flush the coolant.

If you have your car warm, stop for a few minutes and then it cranks but does not run, disconnect the ect senso and try ot start it again. If it does start, there is a very good chance that is the ECT sensor. This is just a test, never drive witrh the ECT sensor disconnected."

I wish you the best of luck and let me know if I can help you find anything else.
