This has happened about 4 times in the last 2 months. After driving 10 miles or more, turn off ignition for short time and car will not start. Engine turns over but won't start. Wait a while, sometimes 10 minutes, sometimes longer and it will start OK. I presume a heatup condition that corrects itself when it cools. Looking for suggestions. Ignition module??

Thanks

 

Fuel or ignition, you'll have to narrow it down. Do you get bright blue spark at plugs when this happens? Possible coil which seems a problem with these engines. Could also be a leaking injector(s) flooding engine. I'd also test the ECT sensor.

 

I have a '93 6 cyl. XLE Camry with the same problem. I can usually get it started if I hold the accelerator to the floor. Can't get it to act up for the mechanic. How can you check the injectors? What is the ECT Sensor? Seems to be a fuel problem not an ignition problem.

 

Turned out to be the coil. Oring gasket on distributor shaft hardened and leaking oil. Wasn't obvious until removing the rotor button and coil cover. Coil was cracked. But also found that cooling fans were not turning, although the temp gauge never went above half way. Reseated the connection at the temp sensor on bottom of radiator got the fans going again.
Thanks for the suggestions.
