Hey all,

I wanted to say hi and introduce myself. Just picked up an ‘02 Tacoma SR5 xtracab 2.7 auto with only 213k. I bought it to be a winter beater and for camping. I did inspect the frame and it’s good and saw through Toyota it had the recall done as well so we shall see. I got right to work learning it because I bought it with a cylinder 2 misfire. Inspected the #2 coil on plug and the coil spring appeared to be in backwards or something, instead of looking up at the cross section of an open spring it had a section of the spring running across the diameter of the opening. I put in 4 new plugs, put #1 coil in #2 and the new coil in #1 cyl. Cleared the code p0302 and started it up. Truck ran smooth, no more shaking, no code. Didn’t get time to get engine up to operating temp so tomorrow I’ll take it out for a drive and see if it returns.

Anyway, didn’t mean for such a long intro. Good to be here, thanks for having me.
