IDLE SPEED & MIXTURE
4-CYLINDER IDLE SPEED & MIXTURE
Camry, Camry Solara, Celica, Corolla, RAV4, Tacoma & 4Runner
NOTE: Mixture adjustment is not possible on any model.
NOTE: Idle speed is controlled by Engine Control Module (ECM) and is not adjustable.
Check idle speed with engine at normal operating temperature,
transmission/transaxle in Neutral, parking brake applied, air cleaner and all
vacuum hoses installed, electronic fuel injection system wiring connectors
properly installed, ignition timing properly set, electric cooling fan off (if
equipped), and A/C and all accessories off.

1. Start engine and warm engine to normal operating temperature. Shut engine off. Remove cover (if
equipped) and connect scan tool to data link connector No. 3. See Fig. 19
-Fig. 25 . Scan tool is used to
read engine RPM.
2. Apply parking brake. Place transmission/transaxle in Neutral. Start engine and maintain engine at 2500
RPM for 90 seconds and then allow engine to idle. Ensure idle speed is within specification. See IDLE
SPEED SPECIFICATIONS table.
3. If idle speed is not within specification, check air intake system, Idle Air Control (IAC) valve, wiring and
Engine Control Module (ECM). See IDLE CONTROL SYSTEM in SYSTEM & COMPONENT
TESTING - 4-CYLINDER article. Shut engine off. Remove scan tool.

4-CYLINDER THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
Camry & Camry Solara
1. Manufacturer does not list procedure for Throttle Position (TP) sensor adjustment. Only information
available is for checking resistance of TP sensor.
2. Disconnect electrical connector from TP sensor. Note electrical terminals on TP sensor. See Fig. 32
.
Apply vacuum to throttle opener.
3. Using ohmmeter, check resistance between specified terminals in relation to throttle position. See
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR RESISTANCE
table. Replace components as necessary if
resistance is not within specification.
Celica
1. Disconnect electrical connector from Throttle Position (TP) sensor. Loosen TP sensor mounting screws.
Connect ohmmeter between terminals IDL and E2. See Fig. 33
.
2. Apply vacuum to throttle opener. To set initial clearance, insert .024" (.60 mm) feeler gauge between
throttle stop screw and throttle lever.
3. Gradually rotate TP sensor clockwise until ohmmeter deflects. Tighten TP sensor mounting screws.
Remove feeler
