    Thanks for the video. In case anyone is wondering, the torque spec for the coil pack hold down bolt is 7 foot pounds of torque and the spark plug is 15 foot pounds of torque.

    If you do not have the right socket or a magnet just use the coil to remove the plug from the hole once you have it lose. Use the coil to put the new plug back in.

    Very well done with details along the way. The video by the Car Care Nut suggests never using anti-seize compound. He feels Toyota doesn't put any on from the factory, and the wrong kind of compound can actually contribute to it seizing. He says if it is torqued properly there will be no problems with the plug in the future. Also I'd go to the store and get the proper spark plug socket with the rubber boot inside it to hold the spark plug by the ceramic insulator. I don't know if there is room in the tube for it landing wrong, but I wouldn't want the soft metal in the conductor or anything getting banged up by dropping it in there.

    I'm using Bosch Double Iridium Plugs #9621...they recommend 17 ft/lbs for torquing. If you got a good sense of feel and you go slow, just ratchet them in until you feel the Crush Washers sink down...and no further. I've done it both with, and without a torque wrench with no issues.

    also if you dont have right socket , a little trick i have learned over the years is if you have a small piece of a garden hose you can use it to remove the plug and also start the plug when putting it back in

    Nice video! Would you recommend changing the plugs when the engine is hot (probably not), just slightly warm to the touch on the valve cover (maybe one hour after turning engine off in the summer) OR when the engine is cold (after say 24 hours)??? Thx!

    I do it when the engine is cold or maybe slightly warm. Check with a mechanic for what's best but I don't think it matters. I wouldn't do it when the engine is hot just so I don't burn myself but there may be other reasons not to do it hot

    It could also be the coil pack. To test it, swap the coil pack around and see which ever cylinder you put #4 to, will a new code refer to it.

    It could be a coil pack issues. I have the same thing on my 2009 with 190k miles on it. Ends up being a coil pack throwing a code. You can test this by swapping #2 coil pack to the other cylinder and see if a new code to that cylinder you swap to comes up. Coil packs are not cylinder specific, so it doesn't matter which one it goes to.
