What you will need: 5/8 spark plug socket with magnet 6" extension 18" extension Universal joint Ratchet Torque wrench 10 mm socket 12 mm socket Anti seize lubrication 8 spark plugs ( Denso ) part # SK20R11
thanks for the video. Got my 2004 v8 4runner spark plugs changed yesterday and it went great. You saved my by saying i'd need the extension and universal joint!
Glad the video helped. Yes the extension and universal joint definitely makes the job a lot easier. Hope those fresh spark plugs are making the V8 T4R run like a champ 👍🏼
Very helpful video Edgar Navarro, thanks for taking the time to post it up. Really appreciate the details-- such as that at 4:45 into the video- your mention of the bracket removal for the access to the plug nearest the driver. Also the specific socket extensions to reach that coil's bolt and the plug inside.Thank you again sir for simplifying the work for us that follow along.
Muchas Gracias por tu video, acabo de hacer el cambio de bujías a mi camioneta, y si tienes razón, me quebré la cabeza para desconectar el cable de los coils, usé un desarmador plano pequeño, lo puse abajo de la pestaña, la levanté y empuje hacia arriba y fácilmente salió, claro que no levantas demasiado porque puedes quebrar la pestaña. Mil bendiciones.
Sorry for the late response Cary. No it is not required to replace them unless you've had them for 100,000 miles or more or if they're in bad shape. i didn't replace mines because I had just installed new ignition coils (wires) 60,000 miles ago
Yeah, I wasn’t aware of that at the time. I had a bad experience cross threading spark plugs on one of my old vehicles so I vowed to always use ant seize when installing spark plugs. Also I made a mistake on the torque spec. I meant to say 17 nm instead of 17 ft lbs
@@BlazingFaith1945 I believe toyota even said not to use antisieze. When you torque the spark plug down it will not be the correct torque if you apply antiseize
@@BlazingFaith1945 if its been this long without issues don't worry about it lol. The issue is the guy who made this video said to do 17ft-lbs, when it should be 14ft-lbs. On top of that, if you use antiseize, it will be even over 17ft-lbs. Again, its been a year, dont worry about it. (just good luck getting those out in the future hehe). So the only hard done is they may be torqued down to 21ft-lbs when it should be 14
