Rotor, Cap and plug wires?

Forum: my 07 Taco w/91K has been starting a little slower than I remember. I have done all the scheduled maintenance. I think my plugs were changed for the major tune up? I don't recall my rotor, cap or wires being changed. Nothing lasts forever, when should these parts get changed?

TIA

These motors are coil on plug systems, no cap/rotor or wires. Spark plug changes only for the secondary ignition.

 

I take it he has never opened the hood.

 

Take a pic of the rotor cap and we will be able to see if it is bad or not.

 

It's been a while since you worked under the hood hasn't it?

 

don't think any vehicles have had these since the 90s

 

The last I had was an 86 Dodge W100 with a 318 in it. I did have the rotor detonate in it though. Thing just quit on the side of the road, pulled the cap and the rotor was black and exploded. Lucky to have a spare.

Truck I bought in 93, didn't even have spark plugs.

 

I replace mine every 60k miles just to be on the safe side

 

My Taco is an appliance to get me to/from work.
The dealership is a 30 min walk and a 5 min bike ride from home.
I don't get under the hood, they do on Saturdays!

My other car is a 74 Vette.
Alm heads and a hyd roller cam.
280 rwhp / 315 rwtq

That car I can tell you about!

When you pay for the Stealership to change the rotor and cap please scan and post the bill - I'm sure there is a lawyer on TW that would be glad to get some $$ for both of you.
