what type of plugs? I know that there has been some schools of thought that say only denso and NGK plugs work well.

Might be running too rich. Do a google for 'reading spark plugs', there are a few web pages devoted to this. HTH

Toyotas run much better with Nippon Denso or NGK plugs.
I run the NDs, and they have never fouled on me.
