    1994 Toyota Camry 4 Cyl Automatic, starting and idle problem
    I have a 1994 Toyota Camry 4cyl automatic. Lately the car has started to cut off with no warning just like I turned the ignition switch off. Sometimes when I first start it the car will cut immediately off. It may or may not restart, if it does restart it may run from 2 seconds up to 25 minutes before it cuts off again. I have replaced the following parts. Air filter, spark plugs and wires, distributor cap, rotor button, distributor, ignitor, Idle air control valve, fuel pump, fuel pump strainer, fuel filter, Ported vacuum switch. I am lost don't know what else it could be. Please help.

    Replacing the ignition coil, preferably with an OEM part, should solve the problem.

    When it cuts off, what is missing? Fuel? Spark?
    How's the charging system? Funcitonal with all cables clean and tight at both ends?
    When you replaced the ignition coil(s), did you also replace the ignition condenser?
