I just bought some NGK plugs, but they are weird. Can you tell me if they are supposed to have 2 prongs? They are not the standard hook shape I am used to, but i have never replaced the plugs in my runner before.

I asked for the normal non-platinum NGKs.

 

Yep, my 1999 has the same type of dual-electrode plugs.

 

They Are The Correct Plugs. I Replaced Mine Last Week!

 

yup like all these guys said - I replace my plugs 3 weeks ago.

 

funrunner,

if you're considering doing the seafoam treatment (which i think is a bit premature for your 01 4runner), you might wait to install those new plugs and do the treatment first.

if not, never mind

Bob...there is a squirrel in your avatar....

Wait a minute while I get my electric cattleprod...that will take care of him.

 

Bob,

Did the seaform treatment (only because when I cleaned the throttle body it was really dirty, (but the MAF sensor as fine, go figure), about 1000 miles ago, so I figure enough time has passed.
