    Been using this forum for years back when I had my 3rd gen 4runner. Bough 05 Tacoma last year July. Out of nowhere my truck started missing thinking maybe it was fuel injectior the way truck was jerking or hesitating - hard to explain. Anyways, I felt plugs needed replacement for months now. So I changed them out today. My question to all of you is the following... At 167,000 mi I pulled out denso out passenger side and ngk out of driver side. I read somewhere that factory does this because of different locations or production. There's no way these plugs were original? Does dealership do this, replicating factory? Why do I have different plugs on different sides at such high miles?

    Those are original plugs 100% Glad you changed them finally haha.

    You should look at the tutorials for cleaning the MAF and throttle body, it will really wake the truck up.
