tune up

has anyone ever had to do a tune up on a s/c tacoma?
it looks like the s/c has to came off to get the driver side plugs out am i right?
let me know what you think

 

no one?
05+ tacoma just looking for ideas before i start ripping it apart

 

Upgrade the fuel pump kit so that you can change your fuel filter.

yea thats on order but wondering how much of a pita it will be to do the plugs

 

I think removing the trd blower for a spark plug change is a cake walk vs changing the fuel pump... It is possible to change the driver side with 3 extensions and a 1/4 inch socket wrench though; I've done both; prefer blower removal

 

The TRD S/C kit includes 6 iridium-tipped spark plugs if I remember correctly. Should be good for 100k. You've put on that many miles since installing the S/C?

 

9700 miles i was looking at the truck and was wow its really tight in there and started wondering do i have to remove the s/c to do the plugs or can i squeak them by without removing it

 

how did you do it without removal? just wondering

 

I thought removing the blower was easier; plus you can inspect the intercooler, intake ports etc... While changing the spark plugs...

Or you can go these routes... (;
