Greg, I am a new subscriber to your videos. Great job. Great details. Glad you don’t add music. I have a 1999 new project Land Cruiser, a 2005 that I have had for 5 years. My wife has a 2006 4Runner Trail Edition with a VVTi 2UZ-FE and my son has a 2007. Your videos are helping me maintain the fleet. Thank again.
Mike, so glad to hear! Sounds like you have an awesome fleet! I like to keep the videos simple and to the point, with a few extra tips and tricks! Gotta keep these things running like new!
You can get 8 Denso Iridium plugs and 8 Denso coil packs from Rock Auto for 500 bucks. I currently own 3 vehicles with the 2uz-fe. It seems like around 225-250k or 20 years old is a good time to change them out, the coil packs. My 3 have 900k between them all. 2 Land Cruisers and a Tundra. I like to them preventatively as this is a common failure point as these get older, cheap insurance. Thanks for the video!!
Nice! That's where I got my coil packs from. That is exactly when mine started to fail, and after doing 3 on the side of the road i thought let me treat it to 8 new Densos and get it over with!
@hokie9910 that's awesome! Especially on these older vehicles its best to keep things as up to date as possible to limit headaches. Especially when I frequently take mine on 1000 mile plus road trips!
Hey thanks! Yea looks like i need to do that side Valve cover gasket and spark plug tube seals as well. I did the drivers side 10k miles ok as it was leaking a bit more. Will post a vid on that soon!
hey! So normally you wouldn't need to replace them until they fail and you get a check engine light or misfire. Since I had 2 of them fail recently and the originals had 285k miles on them, I decided to replace them all. These vehicles do not have spark plug wires.
Yea they definitely are. After 3 failing i figured you just put new ones in all and be done with it. I plan on taking good care of this thing and not just getting by!
New to the 100 gang and I’m soooo loving how simple most maintenance is.
Congrats on getting your 100! Toyota definitely makes it pretty straightforward for most things.

@@cruisinwithgreg Nice! Yeah, I decided to do my kids Lc 100’s before they went off to college just for piece of mind.

@@cruisinwithgreg Yeah, with car prices today let’s keep these babies on the road as long as possible!
Just a heads up. The spark plug tube seals are failing, oil should not be present in the spark plug tube. This will cause misfires in the future.

How do you know when to change the coil packs. Also should I also replace the spark plugs wires all around ?

Coil packs are expensive but i plan to replace mine between 100 and 150 , probably closer to 150,000

New subscribers also bought a chep Lx470 with mass rust by being naive.
Don’t shove paper in your spark plug tubes, if it gets stuck in there you’re going to have a huge pain in the ass for no reason
