    They will missfire only after 20 miles of use?

    Oh man i wish i would've known that before i spent 30 dlls on this plugs.

    Is this a 100% fact that Bosh plugs will missfire?

    Thanks

    Really? That's pretty cool. Don't let any California users read that, those guys can't even install a CAI.

    It's relatively lax here, although the OP of this thread is from Tucson too. New vehicles don't have to test, I've done emissions once in this state, the last year I owned my Camaro. Also, after 25 years you can get the Historic plate and be EXEMPT from emissions. :eek:

    I went to buy the Denso Sparkplugs at the Toyota dealership, then i went to the auto hobby shop at the Air force base and installed all 6 plugs. I reseted the codes.

    1.6 miles later after reset the Check Engine Light comes back on. I checked it instantly wit the Scanner, i got P0301 twice, I plugged the scanner again when i got home 15 miles later, and i had again P0301 X2 and P0300, the same codes!

    What is next Wires????

    Yes sparkplugs from the dealer where 2 electrodes, I am going to try replacing the Wires since my truck has 136,000 miles and I honestly don't know if the last owner ever replaced them.

    I, will try that, then wires when they get here on tuesday, then compression test, i read on another forum that a compression test would be a good idea, some guy had a bad Valve.

    Wish me luck!!!
