Hi Guys,
I am a big Audi guy myself (and prius!) but my girlfriend recently inherited a '96 Camry. It was running fine for a few months, but recently she came to see me for a week (I am going to school in Boston) and let her car sit for a week. When she returned home she tried to start it, and apparently it would crank but would not start. I asked her to go back out to the car and explain to me exactly what was happening. Apparently she turns the key, all the electronics work, then when she goes to start it the engine will rev to 500RPMS then just die. It will do this again and again.

A few weeks ago it apparently stalled on her.

What do you guys think this could be? PCV valve?

Big thanks in advance!

The car is OBD-II compliant. Get the P-codes read. They will help you to diagnose the problem.

My suspicion is on the fuel pump.

Krolls,

Edjack is right get the codes, I am just replying to further explain that.... To get the OBD-II read simply just take it to an AutoZone or a parts store. Most of them will scan it for you and tell you the codes that it displays. If yu can fid on then i would suggest just buying a code reader, They dont cost more that 50 bucks even less. Mine cost me 35 ... Very good investment for situations like this.
