I have a 1988 toyota camry with a 2.0 engine I was driving it stopped at stop light tryed to take off and there was no power. pushed car to side of road.started but no power. So I unpluged map senor car shut off. Now will not start I have spark gas check all fuses all good.I took computer off runnig car no start, tryed map senor checked timing still no start. I have now taken pressure regulater of but not sure if that will work if regulater is bad will car not start. please help if you can. Thinking about using a match.

 

Can you describe what no power means? The engine does not rev up, revs up but bogs when car attempts to move, etc.

How good is the ign spark? A problem ign system can produce a spark but not hot enough to do the job.

Also check fuel pump for pressure and flow.

 

engine boged like converter was clogged disconnected from car still would not start. Spark good checked plugs they are dry. Good fuel pressure and flow, thinking it is the pressure regulater. I am also going to check the solenold resistor. Forgot to add that code 24 & 43 showed up checked, this looks like they maybe ok again good spark, fuel and charged battery

 

Code 24. Open or short in air temp sensor for ECU.

Code 43. No starter signal to ECU when vehicle stopped and engine running over 800 RPM.

Could be ignition switch, starter wiring circuit, main relay circuit.
