NO guarantees - but -
my 94 had this problem and now it runs sweet as can be.
a camry 95 deserves a EGR cleanning anyways. If that soles your problem great. Another one , quite tricky, is the temp sensor malfunction. This is an erratic one, but tends to happen as a warm stall or any time when the coolant temps gets high (idling during heavy traffic). This malfunction rarely turns the engine problem light signal. Best way to check? Connect an ohmeter to the temp sensor, start your car and let it idle. The ohmeter should give you values of 20-40 K ohms when cold and 0.2 Kohms when the fan starts after idling. Keep an eye on the meter. If it start jumping from 0.2-9 kohms to 80-200 k ohms, change temp sensor. With this high k ohms readings the temp sensor is telling the ECU that coolant is cold and go send morw gas to the engine= warm stall. Check my galleries there is picture with three switches, the green on left is the temp sensor. good luck
