Camry 6-cyl

My 1997 Camry will not start back and hold an idle sometimes after it has been drove for a little while. It starts fine when it is cold and when it refuses to idle, if I wait until the fuel injectors fill, and turn on the A/C it will then start. I have taken it to the service department at a Toyota dealership twice and they cannot give me any explaination, they told me it could be three different things and each part would cost at $100 or more plus labor they told me I'd have to just put on each part until iget it right, that's too much money to guess, so I continue to drive it and hope that it will start, this is very frustrating. I thought that Toyota was supposed to be very good at service" what are they doing, hiring just anyone off the street to repair cars"
