gearheads, 94 toyota 22re EFI cold start idle is too high. The air screw adjust on the TB seems to be working ok. When warm the air screw on the TB is about 1 1/2 turns out. The idle is good when warm but idles too high when cold. When the screw is turned in the engine will stutter then stall. If i recall there is an adjustment inside the IAC bowl where the coolant passes through.
Is this where to adjust the cold start idle or is there another way to adjust the cold start idle?

How cold are we talking and how high is the idle while cold you don't like. Mostly leave it alone and think about cleaning up throttle body if anything,

There is no adjustment for the cold air idle. That is controlled by coolant temperature and a wax pellet. The cold air valve is set at the factory and doesn't require adjustments. With the engine fully warmed up and a tachometer connected, turn the idle adjustment screw until the idle is around 750 rpm with the transmission in park.
If you have vacuum leaks and/or the power steering or ac idle up solenoid or valve is active that is going to mess up your idle adjustments and will make your engine idle higher.

1500 cold idle is about normal. Do check what DS mentioned and it should be at around 700 warmed up some but not 1500 for all that long at those temps still moderate.
Understand worried about rich mixture loading up cat with fuel. It can for a grace period and will burn than off when used. If all you did was start it cold all the time and not ever drive it that would cause a problem.
FYI - while running that high it's heating the converter up fast to burn off extra expected,

An over rich mixture would be bringing the idle speed down, not up.

Jeez - I see it was worried about but probably not really happening? About anything will raise idle for couple/few seconds to longer for the cold start year round. Not just my own - anything I've just moved or driven.
Need to count real seconds it does this. As of now not sure it's a problem at all by itself,

1500 rpm is pretty normal for a cold idle. If the rpm never came down to ~750rpm as it warmed up, then there is a problem.

Something is a typo or messed up here? They don't use a port to PS (power steering) for this and I think ALL had PS and brakes which did have a port for vacuum. Reason idle rises for PS or A/C is to cover extra load. You don't adjust that it's automatic with a wire to PS high pressure hose if any and just sensing clutch on A/C is empowered or plain low idle computer covers low idle because of loads by itself. That solenoid isn't - it's a cushion I think so loss of higher idle to low with A/C on and off isn't so abrupt.
Screw to Throttle body isn't to adjust idle and not an indication of no vacuum leaks. If anything a base setting to leave alone.
Sounds more like the car's power brakes are blocked off and probably horribly hard to stop. Cars with no PS if so and bet this was made for export without it would have a gear ratio reduction or larger steering wheel or both. If not horribly hard to steer. Same with no power brakes not sold to the US that way.
Observations are confused or this car is not fit for road use in California where signal comes in from if registered in that state. TMK fine to use a car for a period of time out of a home state or country for varied amounts of time - visits, vacations, school etc., but not forever,

i have had 3 of these 22re. 89 to about 94 was pretty much the same. Some subtle changes. I have one 94 22re is a little different on the VSV for the EGR. One 94 has the VSV on the valve cover. The other has a temp coolant sensitive VSV under the TB. The 89 22re LB DLX i had was full power. The P/S had a vacuum port to the P/S from the EFI pentium just above the thermostat. I have had 2 94 22re with P/B, AC and no P/S - manual steering gear. Here is a link for toyota manual and P/S steering. Not all 22re pickups were P/S. Maybe the DLX models were full power.

OK - Sorry I messed up with looking at too many windows on this all at once.
Trucks do come all differently than so called "cars" and would come without PS or sometime power brakes - depending.
I'll leave the thread alone now but some comments left. Power steering has nothing to do with engine speeds except some (not even all) that sense high pressure in a hydraulic line then a signal to make RPMs go up that you don't notice to cover that load.
Please - no offense and liked these for what they were. ALL CAPS - THESE ARE CLOSE TO THE MOST RUSTED VEHICLES EVER PUT ON EARTH! TOTAL RECAL AND FOLKS GIVEN NEW VEHICLES NO MATTER WHAT SHAPE OVER KNOW WILDLY DANGEROUS RUST PROBLEMS, FRAMES, BODY PARTS QUICKLY FELL RIGHT OFF AND SO ON.
This is NE coast of US where things always rust - these were so bad absolutely none exist here that old. They could and do exist in total rust free areas.
For this reason I knew of none even 2 years old without fatal rust due to body and frames.
Mechanically this still doesn't add up. All injected engines from those years still were automatic to adjust idle speeds or had a mechanical problem as mentioned.
Yes - some carb vehicle did use a push out solenoid for A/C held idle up while A/C requested was mechanical and adjustable. None were fuel injected ever noticed by me.
Lost for specifics for this truck as it failed miserably around where I am never saw one stay on the road long enough to keep here,

ok, ill just have to get my butt in gear and do the the TB/IAC cleanout thing. I was just asking for some more advice because my vehicles are older, aging, always something and can be a PITA sometimes because of their age. Thanks, Ill get back later.
