91 camry DX 2.0 went out to start my camry today and it didnt want to start( which is very strange), i kept turning it over and finally after about 10-15 seconds it started to sputter into a very weak idle. as soon as i tried to rev it up a bit, it stalled. tried to start it again and had the same results. i finally got it running just barely strong enough to move it, and i turned it around in the driveway and as i was backing it in, it stalled again. its acting like the injectors are maybe clogged or dirty. its been fairly humid and moist here and i thought this could also be affecting the running condition. i just replaced the plugs, wires, and cap last summer. could anyone give any pointers? thanks

Your injectors did not clog up overnight... Look elsewhere.
Perhaps your timing belt is stretching? Just takin' a stab in the dark...

Air filter? Fuel filter?
check the ignition coil
with age and moisture, could be the problem.
Probably the coil, If it is damp out. Is your distributor cap tight. To see if it is moisture get it running to temp, turn it off, wait apx 45 min to 1 hr . If it runs fine it is moisture in the distributor and possibly on the coil. A new coil may be needed
