I replaced #4 and it is running a whole lot better ... still doing a little skipping when coming to a stop though. Machine shows "intermittent skip" but does not designate another bad coil. Just had new plugs and wires put in this past May so I dunno - maybe it needs to be idled-up. Engine...

Thank you very much! It looks like a Gen III diagram, but it still works for the layout I would bet. YOU DA MAN! So ... The numbering is 5 6 3 4 1 2 Front Like this ...

On a V6 how are the pistons/plugs/coils numbered? I have to replace coil #4 according to the machine, but which one is #4? If I am standing at the front of the 4Runner, how are they numbered? Driver's side first, passenger side first, left to right, right to left? I have no idea and...

Not planning on getting rid of it anytime soon. Bought it new, have taken good care of it, plan on running the wheels off of it and trying to put a half million miles on it before I hand it down to one of the kids. I put over 400k miles on my 8100 and over 300k on my Supra. I had not ...

Thanks. Okay, well I just ordered two of them so I'd have a backup. $79.90 and they are the "house brand" but she says they are built in the same factory that the Delcos and others are built in and they have a 1 yr guarantee, if it goes bad they replace it free of charge and pay the shipping...

Yeah, well I'm an old geezer too but my Mamma taught me manners back in the 50s and 60s. I'm also well versed in Boolean search syntax methodology, as I stated when I began this thread, and I used the search engine and had to wade through 100s of threads, many of which where the almost...

Anyone else notice the preponderance of these rear latch incidents happening on the '03s and '04s from 2010-2011? Seems to me to be epidemic which leads me to believe there is a flaw with the motor that causes a six-seven year life span of some sort.

Seriously - no kidding. Where was the little blue wire located?
