tools needed to replace spark plugs?

i need to remove my spark plugs, but the truck is not at my house, so i need to take the tools with me. cant find any info on 3rd gens. if anyone knows what all i need to remove all 6 plugs i would appreciate it!

 

Is your truck not under warranty? Curious as to why you're messing with spark plugs so early in the vehicle's life.

 

Probably 30k maint I would think. But if you have to ask what tools you need - you should prob take it to the dealer and let them do it.

 

Did you swamp it?

It's similar to the 1GR but no one has likely had to remove a set for maintenance yet.

I'm unsure if the new plugs are standard 5/8" sockets or the new 14mm socket, so bring a deep 14mm for sure.

10mm 1/4" shallow and long socket with ratchet, 3/8" spark plug socket, long ass extension and ratchet.

 

I thought the 3rd Gens have 60k plugs?

 

He would've said 'replace' instead of remove. Suggests water got in.

Good luck OP. If so, that sucks.

 

You may want to take the appropriate wrench with you to remove the oil pan plug. Carefully loosen plug and observe what comes out. At the very least, drain the water before spinning the engine over. Good luck.

 

Except the Thread name says "Replace".

 

Ahh, missed that. Doh!

 

Spark plug socket (the small one), extension (take one of each up to 12" long), ratchet, swivel, screw driver to remove air filter intake tube. A pair of pliers to remove any spring style hose clamps. Throw in extra stuff too just incase, like 10 mm 12mm 14mm sockets, different screw drivers.

 

Was it running when it submerged

 

Dayum

 

Good luck

 

Hopefully no damage to the engine. Good luck OP.

 

Fuck. I hope nothing is bent internally.

 

Ouch!

 

haha - will this thread show up on a Carfax?

 

I can say with full confidence..... No.
