1999 Camry Idles slow on startup when engine is cold. It dose not stall. It idles fine after it warms up.

No the check engine light does not come on.

Hi cabothines,

The cold start system is not operating properly so you need to check the Idle Air Control or Fast Idle Control depending on which system is your car equipped with.
