How Often to Change Spark Plugs

Not sure about how often to change the spark plugs in your Toyota vehicle? It is generally recommended that you replace your Toyota spark plugs every 30,000 miles, but you should check your owner’s manual for information on your specific Toyota model.

When Do You Change Spark Plugs? 

Your Toyota spark plugs transfer the high voltage current from the ignition coil to ignite the fuel in the combustion chamber. If the spark plugs are fouled or aren’t functioning properly, you’ll notice issues such as:

• Slow or no start
• Poor acceleration
• Engine misfire
• Engine running rough
• High fuel consumption

Benefits of Routinely Changing Your Spark Plugs

Knowing how often to change spark plugs can help you to avoid the issues listed above, while providing a number of benefits you’re sure to notice as you cruise the roads in and around Burlington. Some key benefits of replacing spark plugs in accordance with your maintenance schedule include:

• Improved fuel economy – Having a worn out spark plug can reduce your fuel economy by as much as 30%, and replacing it can help gain that back.
• Consistent combustion – Spark plugs allow for the continuous production of combustion, so your engine will run smoothly at peak performance levels. 
• Quick Starting – A set of new Toyota spark plugs will enable your vehicle to start right up as soon as you turn the key or hit the start button. 
• Less harmful emissions – Replacing your vehicle’s spark plugs can not only help increase your gas mileage but also improve your emissions.
