    o_O NOPE. I did 4 in my mazda took about 10 minutes.

    Might need a torque wrench, then again, could probably ballpark it. Ford is the only truck I'd have them do the spark plugs since they constantly break in half and are a pain in the arse to deal with. Cousin has a V6 F150, he thinks the same as me, it was like 350 and change. 750 for a V6 tacoma spark plugs? :rofl::rofl::rofl:

    OEM denso plugs are like $35 a piece so that's 2 bills there. I just did them and it was a pain in the ass. mostly because all my "extras" were in the way. But it should only take you 1.5-2 hours if you anything extra in your engine bay.

    Haven’t looked up how to do it on a Tacoma but my frontier required me to pull the entire intake manifold up to do the last spark plug. Still, it wasn’t bad. I it yourself

    The 'dealer' tried to charge me $800 bucks for a $27 purge valve for my '15 Camry. I wouldn't have tried to put that out there as the going rate, nor did I of course, purchase it..
    Ebay, $27.00, OEM. Delivered. That's what I passed on.. lol

    A v6 F150 will be no issue. The broken plugs was on the three valve V8.

    don’t know don’t own one I thought they’ve had issues with them across multiple engines though.

    either way. Half as much as ops quote. And way more than a diy job. Do they need to reprogram something afterwards? What in gods green earth is worth 750 for a six plug change. How much are Toyota own plugs 100 each?
