Approaching 120,000 miles so I got the plugs. The car runs fine but why tempt fate. I serviced the transmission a 108,000 miles and it was the cleanest tranny pan I ever dropped. So Plugs go in in a couple of days. Thanks for the information.
You will get a more accurate torque with it than you would with dry hardware. With dry hardware, you can actually be twisting the fastener, which interferes with the overall torque reading
I believe the torque specs are based on friction between the threads of the metals being joined. Engineers know the friction coefficients based on the metals and the finish. You introduce a lubricant in there and the engineering spec no longer applies. Unless the manufacturer says to lubricate, I would not do it. The engineers also expect the fastener to be twisted. That's silly.
Bro you just saved me $312!!!!! I just did it in my driveway!!! Hey man MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!🎄
Oh my gosh thank you!!! You saved me so much money at the Stealership. Great vid, you explain very well, clear, enjoyed.
Your very welcome, thank you for watching! I wish I had more time to post more videos lol.
Means a lot to know I've helped
"Stealership" -BWAHAHAHA!! I'm using that from now on! LOL! !
Ha ha! I call them stealerships too. And for good reason.

Thank you bro you helped me tune up my gf’s car all your videos are great
Thank you very much for watching, glad to have been some help to you.
Gotta love those old Toyotas. Easiest sparkplug change ever.
Thank you! I saved $200 by following your video and doing it myself.
Mike Spalding your welcome I'm glad to have been some help!
I'll be doing this either today or tomorrow thank you

What kind of wheels are on your Yaris
Wouldn't application of anti-seize corrupt the torque setting?

Most people disconnect the boot from the harness. Is it a precaution to consider?
Hey how many foot lb did you say? 15?
15 to 18 foot pound is ok
The Toyota dealer here said 120k miles.
