Hello, Welcome to JustAnswer. My name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* I am an independent Auto Technician. Sorry to hear you are having a problem with your vehicle I will do my best to assist you with this issue. A live optional phone call will be automatically offered by JustAnswer not me, A Live Call is a "Premium Service" and will cost more money. I prefer communicating via this site if this is okay with you. It may take a moment for me to get back to you as I may have to look up information about your concern, So I really appreciate your patience. Do you have your VIN number handy for me so I can look up your vehicle? May I ask who I have the pleasure of chatting with? Greg.

Felice and the vin number is \*\*\*\*\*

Thank you Felice Please bear with me while I put the information together and type my answer. This may take a little time, but rest assured, I am on the case, Just now checking for any related TSB's. Greg. Felice do you have the 22RE or the @@r with the carburetor and not fuel injection? The 22RE is fuel injected?

Greg did you get the vin number I sent youNo I don't want to switch to a live call

Sorry, this is an option from justanswer which I personally can't do so please do not accept. We can carry on with chat. yes got the vin but still give both option of Fuel injected or carb models If not sure lift the hood and on the front of the [engine](/topics-engine-toyota/) valve cover will be a sticker with 22R or 22RE check which one you have?

I have a 22R engine

Okay good, thank you. You have a carburetor engine and when this problem starts it's because it's getting too much fuel or too little air on startup. First, do the basics and check the [air filter](/topics-air-filter-toyota/) and air intake for any restrictions? But probably because it's time to have the carburetor overhauled. the metering needle, idle mixture screw adjustment, etc. If you need to continue or if there is anything else I can assist with at all, let me know here and I will be happy to assist further! This is not one answer and done and if any part of my response is confusing or needing more detail, please reply and let me know. I am not done until you are happy. After rating positive 5 stars you can get back to me anytime and the question will stay open for us with no added cost . Rgds Greg
