My 1994 Camry is going dead at a traffic light. I put it in park get it going and maybe it will let me put it in drive without dying again. Brought it to a mechanic they cleaned the throttle and changed the oil - the fuel filter had been changed one year ago - it did not act up so they gave it back to me. Tonight it died as I was driving I pulled to the side with alot of trouble and tried to get it started but though I get all the proper sounds it does not turn over the motor. Tried 3 hours later same thing.

Yikes-don’t put your phone number on a forum read by thousands of people around the world!

As for the car problem, you need to have a good mechanic who deals with Toyota take a look at it and inspect your fuel and ignition system.
