Description
Spark Plug Replacement: Get That Spark Back! — Featuring NGK
> Spark plugs, eh? They're the little blighters responsible for igniting the fuel in your Toyota's engine. Over time, they get worn down by heat and carbon, especially in hard-working vehicles like the Hiace and Estima. Replacing them? It's a no-brainer for keeping your engine sweet.
Symptoms That Led You Here
• Rough idling? Feels like your Toyota Crown's got the hiccups?
• Fuel economy gone down the drain in your Granvia or Regius?
• Struggling to start, especially when it's chilly?
• Acceleration like a wet week? Your Chaser or Cresta feeling sluggish?
• That pesky check engine light glaring at ya?
Will it pass WOF?
Worn spark plugs mean your engine's not running clean, and that can lead to higher emissions. A failed emissions test during your WOF could mean it's spark plug time.
DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 1-2 hours
