Re: 87 toyota camry can't figure out what is wrong
the three key cycles and then it starts for a little while sounds like it could be a fuel pressure problem. each time you cycle the key without starting up allows the fuel pressure to build up. As soon as it starts up it runs the fuel pressure down to where it can't stay running.
It could be a bad coil. Actually, it could be a lot of things but I would check the basics first. Fuel pressure, Injector pulse and spark. You said it still has compression, did you measure it? Timing belt can cause a no start but since it ran when you cycled the key 3 times I would look at fuel pressure first.
Overheat on any car can cause serious problems down the road. Once an engine gets overheated there is a chance that the head gasket may be damaged. It may take months to show up so that it's noticeable but the damage was way back when it first overheated.
