Toyota Repair: Camry starting problem, engine cranks, throttle body


Question
Have been having intermittent starting problems with my 4 cylinder 92 Camry sedan. Some mornings is very hard to start. Engine cranks over but does not start, some times till battery runs flat. Then have to jump start till it starts. Engine will then run rough when first starting to accellerate, and wanting to stall when having to stop, till car warms up. Car has no problems re-starting after this while still warm. But if left for an extended period of time, say 6hrs, will sometimes have trouble re -starting.  

Answer
Sounds like the IAC motor isnt working. (Idle Air Control).
Tap the throttle body, LIGHTLY, when trying to start it and see if the idle comes up.
When cold it acts like a choke. Its located on the bottom of the throttle body. You can try to clean it with carb clean but most times it requires replacement.
