    Truck just rolled over 91k miles after my last trip. Thinking it's time for some new plugs. What would you install? 4.0 V6

    They were due to be replaced many miles ago . I suggest 6 new denso plugs . Remove the battery terminals and clean the throttle body while you are there

    Denso K20HRU11 is what I've been running for 7.5 years in mine. They've been great. I would recommend sticking to the maintenance schedule and changing them out every 30k miles.

    Put back in same exact plug that you take out. They are the best for the engine. Don't change heat range or anything.

    No in fact they will last longer than stock plugs but it’s a badge of honor here to stay stock. I ran iridiums in an 06 x runner no problems
