I recently made repairs to my 91 Camry 4 cyl including replacement of plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor. It ran awesome for a couple hrs but is now idling to low and stops if I do not have the gas slightly pushed. How can I set the idle higher?
Es esta una buena pregunta?

What did you do to fix the problem, please post so others can share.
After replacing the plugs and wires, distributor cap and rotor I found that the car was idling so low I had to keep my feet on gas and brake to keep it from dying. I realized the air intake hose at the carb. was not staying tight and that the hose was actually cracked. I went to Auto Zone and bought a coupling/clamp combo, thus idle was almost perfect. I paid like $9.00 for the part and worked like a champ!!!

Did you by chance, twist the distributor ? The slightest tweek in spark timing would cause idle-speed to change.
Also check for a vacuum tubing not connected.
That being all OK, Remove the plastic air-intake to where you can see the throttle mechanism move when your helper steps on the gas. That thing has a easy-to-find-stop-screw for setting idle-speed. Turn it clockwise to idle faster. Stand to the side, have helper hold the brakes, put it in drive, and see how it idles.
Thats it - clean all the air intake parts while you have them off.
I had the big 6cyl toyota.
It had six pieces of plastic plumbing under the hood !
