HI Guys,
I have an ae82 rolla with a 4ac around 310,000k
Got a weird problem that decided to surface last night.
Driving home from work, doing down a side road, slowing to an intersection, and the engine just dies.
Weird, restart, continue driving.
I pull up to the lights, and notice the car running like shit.
I shift into N,and notice the idle is around 600 rpm!
Normal idle i had at about 1200 or so.
I get the car home and tweak with the idle adjustment to get it to idle back to 1200.
With it back to 1200, i rev it up and it decides to now idle at 2000.
Take it for a drive, and the engine is VERY stuttery, running very unsmooth and randomly idleing from 700 - 2000 and not really behaving correctly.
Ive recently replaced the entire ingnition system
Distrib ~ 10000k
Leads, Plugs, Coil ~ 1000k
Im thinking the carbie might have some issues... but no idea.
ALso thought it could be a vacumn leak as when on the brakes i can feel weird vibrations, possibly indicating a vacumn leak, or that my POS is on its last legs 
Anyone experience the same problems or have any ideas as what it could be.
Getting very fed up with my car atm, seriously thinking of ditching it in favour of another DD...
Anyone got a cheap reliable 2-3k car?
