1992 Toyota Corolla 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

my car idles roughly and when on long travel when I stop then put it on sometimes engine goes off. Then when I adjust idle screw then it works but seems rough.
is it the coolant sensor problem. It does 50 km per gallon. Is it consuming lot of fuel?
how many oxygen sensors are there?

Adjisting the idle screw is never a good idea. You will simply mask a more serious problem like a vacuum leak.

If idle is high, then check for vacuum leak at intake manifold, injectors etc.

You should get 25-30 mpg.

There is one oxygen sensor on front exhaust pipe.
