radio interference after plugs and wire change? Any ideas?
Last night I replaced the plugs and wires in my Tacoma with NGK IX iridium 5464 plugs and NGK 4412 wires. This morning I notice some static noise through my radio that I know has never been there. Im assuming the NGK's are resistor plugs, Im using the same plugs and wires in my Rav4 and MX5 with no issue like this! The truck is running like a top, it starts much easier sounds smoother. Any ideas? I’m going out now to make sure nothing is loose.

Since those are suppression wires they shouldn't be causing any significant RFI. So I can't answer your question unfortunately. Perhaps it's a fair trade if it's running much smoother now...
How many people here know what your avatar is besides you and me? That's another good question...

How many people will remember that movie?

Katakana...3 kana...8 strokes...To + Yo + Ta = Toyota.
Why?
Because Toyoda, as in the founder of the company, is 10 strokes. 8 is a "lucky" number, 10 isn't. Hence the name change.
I knows my Toyota history.
