    dealer will be about 5 bucks each

    and unless my 2 spark gap gauges are incorrect mine have been slightly overgapped in the box (0.044-45) so may need to knock them down a bit to 0.043 or 42

    My buddy has a first gen Tacoma with a V6 and had new NGK plugs, timing belt, etc. installed at a well known shop. Several months later one of the plug tips came off and he had to do a head job on that side. NGK said it was just out of warranty. Probably just a fluke but thought I'd share.

    Everything but the driveshaft. B03A - 410
    Just installed a new set of Denso's from @Blue92 's post. I love them. Its great our trucks don't require plugs that are $14 each. Sometimes expensive doesn't translate into better.

    FWIW - I've been running NGK v-power coppers and double platinum in my other Japanese engines without issue for many years. For the Taco, decided to do something crazy and go with the stock Denso parts as much as possible. No complaints.

    On the V6s, at the Nummi factory, Toyota had the assembly line on driver side installing Denso plugs and the other side was installing NGKs! They both work great on the 3.4 so no biggie. Just thought it was funny
