If its just the number 3, its most likely just the plug. Replace those and see what happens. if that doesnt fix the problem. Get new Cap and Rotor and replace those, its like 20 bucks to get both of them. One thing you should check though when you take the cap and rotor off. While you are there check to see if you have oil inside the cap or on the inside of the distributor. Means you need a new distributor and FYI dont get it from anywhere other then Toyota. Auto Zone and Orileys just rebuild them and they are poorly rebuilt.
But thats just what you should do if the plugs dont work, again, its most likely just the plugs. This post has been edited by Havok1997GT: May 29, 2008 - 11:40 PM |
