I'm having trouble with my celica with start up where its not idling where it should be instead it idles around 200 and would shut off. but this only happens on ocassion. I noticed that 2 of my spark plugs are wet with oil so I cleaned them up and the problem still occurs. I called Toyota and was told to replace the tube seals but this didn't fix the issue. Could it be the valve guide seals at this point? Also my car is not throwing smoke BUT it does smell like burning oil on cold starts till she warms up. Any suggestions would help.
-------------------- I only want to be faster than the guy next to me.

Mine had a similar problem, only difference is it only does it when its really hot outside. In the morning or at night it starts no problem in the middle of the day it seems fuel starved
