My buddy's got a 94 celica GT. After driving his car for about 15 minutes or so, he'll stop at a light or whatever and at idle, his car lopes high then low (like it's struggling to stay on) then high again and low again. It's not all the time. Plus he has a very tiny amount of white residue in his oil fill cap (I'm thinking possible HG leak?). What's the deal with the loping? I thougt IAC or MAF, but could it be the HG? Oh yeah, the altenator is fine and the battery is new.

if its overheating and idling weird, i would check the ignition timing. it may have gotten retarded and your burning a lot of fuel in your exhuast
