Last trips to dealer approaching and tired of them f’ing up my 4Runner, spilled oil, missing, not installing plate bolts, rotating tires when asked not to, losing keys, not checking air filter but saying it’s clean, when I know it’s got leaves in it, general jackassery from a supposed group of professionals.
I can do it, just wondering if this makes it less messy or easier?
Corwin toyota in Boulder is making me grumpy.

If you are doing it yourself, my opinion would be to stick the factory plug with magnet. While it is not a definitive test, checking the plug for excessive metal could be a early warning sign of internal wear issues. Or on the flip side, it is also reassurance that your baby is in good health.
