Hello I'm Rick from just answer, sorry to hear about your Camry issues as I know how frustrating this can be, if you see a phone call request you may just ignore that..... Did you happen to notice an engine light coming on and if so did you have it scan for any codes yet?

it showed that my car was running lean in bank one. That problem was rectified. My car no longer had any codes

Ok, you may still have a vacuum leak somewhere, may be a hose cracked or gasket sucking air somewhere, if your not getting codes.... If you take a can of brake cleaner or starting fluid and spray around the intake and around the vacuum hoses while It is running and see if idle picks up

This has never happened until we put in a vacuum solenoid. Then it happened the next day. Could that have caused this?

It's possible, the vacuum line may be leaking somewhere, or throttle position sensor or idle air control sensor may be stuck or dirty

Your welcome, also check the throttle body and maybe do a clean on the throttle body as well you would just take off the main intake hose that goes to the air filter and clean out the butterfly flap maybe with a toothbrush or something similar some brake cleaner and a rag... As this could be contributing to your problem as well Best of luck take care

You gave me some advice as to why my car would loose power and the idle drop so low that the car shook and stalled with no warning.

Did you have any luck with that?
Still not sure what you need?
Have a certified mobile mechanic diagnose what's wrong with your car, at your home or office.
