i was just thinking about it and there may be another problem... i'm not sure if the toyota petrol motors have a fuel cut-off solenoid on the carb, but could be dodgy wiring up to the solenoid.


Only in the idle circuit, otherwise that would be a good guess.

Any fuel coming out of the fuel pump weep holes?

Sticky needle valve?

Um.... Carb bolts tight?

And, IIRC, the EGR issues with the cam is in regards to it pulling too much vacuum and opening it too early.
