UPDATE: owners manual calls for replacement around 120k so I'm not that far behind i guess. Still went out and bought 4 new plugs and installed them. $80 at the dealer
Noticed before the LTFT was -6% and now its back to 0%.
Guy was gunna charge me $720 USD for changing my serp belt and another $550 USD for changing just my spark plugs. That's $20 for the serpantine/drive belt, $150 for the belt tensioner and I think another like $120ish for spark plugs (B58 engine). So in total I saved myself roughly $1,000 just doing it myself.
Those look great last time I did mine they were all carboned up but I was at 300k but definitely made a difference in Fuel economy and a little less sluggish
I’ve owned my truck for a year now and just decided to take out the spark plugs to see how old they were… mfs were the original factory plugs 14 years old and ran for 246k miles.. basically got a brand new truck now haha
I was looking at pictures of the V12 engine found in the Toyota Century. Then I noticed the spark plug/coil arrangement: Interesting.
I did track it extensively, probably 3-4,000 km of track use. The only thing it needs is brake fluid and better pads and you're good to go. My car was flawless for the entire time I had it. It threw a CEL right before I sold it that was solved with a simple spark plug change. It never overheated at the track and it was a lot of fun there and very refined and comfortable for highway travel.
If you are willing to put some money into it before resorting to drastic measures, try replacing all 6 of your spark plugs and ignition coils. Might help in your case, or it might not.
