Tune UP 2000 Runner V6
Hi Newbie here,
2000 4runner 140,000 miles. New timing belt and o2 pump just installed. Want to do a tune up. NGK or Denso plug / wire setup, what is recommended. Also is there a dist cap and rotor to buy, if so which one. Wife drives it and I dont need high performance parts, just good parts with reliability. Thanks |
No cap or rotor.
Here's the 30,000 mile service: Engine oil & filter (asumming normal oil change interval) Engine air filter Engine coolant Non-platinum spark plugs Lubricate driveshafts, there are several zerk fittings - molybdenum disulfide grease. Replace Auto trans fluid Replace Diff oil Replace transfer case oil Clean Throttle body Clean MAF -If you do this every 30,000 miles, your Toyota will last well past 300,000 miles. There's nothing here that is difficult, plus it gets you looking under the hood. |
Moved to the Newbie Tech Section.
OEM all the way - easiest thing to do is go to Toyota and tell them parts you want to replace and they will get you all OEM stuff. Some stuff you can get a little cheaper online like O2 sensors, plugs, etc... I get all my stuff straight from the dealership since I have a good relationship with them and they give me a great discount. Fink:devil: |
NGK or Nippodenso plugs are fine. I favor the Densos myself-your truck actually came with 3 of each- just to blow your mind. For a wire set yes I would stick with Toyota. Shop your local stealership and then compare to my buds at TRDPARTS4U.com they have great OEM prices.
No distributor cap as mentioned by Potomacduck-the 3.4V6 uses coil packs. welcome new member-view and page backwards in the 96-02 Runner section for a good spark plug change writeup. t4r.org is a Runner specific forum also for a wide variety of opinions. And of course the search function of this very forum or just google '4Runner spark plug change' |
