Newer Style Plug #4705

I put this in my truck as well when I did my plugs 15k~ miles ago. No issues here

 

Owners manuals don’t get changed. Explain the information I provided from the dealers parts catalog.

I’ll stick with what the dealer has…….

 

The debate here is that the 2023, which has the exact same motor as the rest of the 3rd gens, uses different plugs? Is that what I am reading

 

Because those little blurbs don't get updated, especially on websites. Owner's manuals do get updated. That's just a dumb comment. And guess what else owner's manuals do? They give the manufacturer part number NOT the Toyota part #. My god man we have the same motors. Until you can tell me what the manufacturer part # is of the plug you say should go into our trucks I'll go with putting the same plug that came out of my truck, the same plug that everyone on here uses, the same plug that comes up in every search for the correct plug, the same plug that is shown in every picture using the part number you supplied, (the ONLY thing you've supplied) The ONLY plug mentioned on the quick maintenance guide on this very site.

 

I think so, but honestly I'm not sure

 

2023 owner's manual says the same thing. I don't think they'd ever update the older manuals, but they absolutely would update the latest if they found a reason to change it in later years.

I'll stick with what's in the manual. The dealer parts websites are full of inaccurate and contradictory information. Hopefully the people at the parts counter have better info.

When I bought my truck the used car dealer put in cheap Champion plugs gapped to 0.040. Rockauto lists them as an option. They did work, but I'll stick with the manual's recommendation for maximum reliability. It would be nice if they gave a tolerance on the gap, because otherwise I have no idea if 0.040 is acceptable (besides the fact that it seems to work).
