Default 96 Camry warm start issue

Ok im new here so ill try to explain my problem the best i can.

I dont seem to have issues with cold starts but if i run the car 5-10 min up the road to the store I normally have to wait like 10 min for it to start up.

2. Half the time when the car idles around 2k or higher

3.The car will stall out at a red light if i dont hold the break and gas at the same time

4 when the car goes to stall out and i press the gas to save it the seems to be black smoke (I have a white camry and on the back bumper above the exhaust theres like a black soot).

If you need more info i can try to explain

The IAC valve controls idle speed. These can be cleaned. An internet search will find posts on how to do this.

There is a coolant temp sensor the computer uses to tell if the coolant is hot or cold (engine hot or cold). If this sensor goes bad all kinds of strange engine problems can occur.

Black smoke may mean the engine is running rich. During cold starting the computer adds more fuel via the injectors. Perhaps this system is not turning off, hence check the coolant temp sensor.

Something could be wrong with the fuel pressure regulator, too high or low pressure.
