denso with autozone wires.no complaints yet.
One comment I would like to make while on the subject of plugs ,I see the four pronged plugs being pushed in the parts stores.This seems silly to me .The spark is going to take the path of least resistance,and only one path ,not four.maybe its advantage is if one prong is damaged or fouled you have 3 more to go through ONE AT A TIME.Does this make sence to anyone else

Showed my truck to the local Toyota 4X4 guru, and the first thing he says is: Get some OEM wires on that thing! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/mrt.gif" alt="" />
Who am I to question?

Body Damage is Cool
I run NGK plugs and OEM (stealership) wires.

Beyond being great wires, the dealership ones have the added bonuses of being the perfect lengths, having all of the wire-retainer clips, and being labelled per cylinder. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

worth the extra $$

Need a Spot
Stay away from a brand called "Original Engine Management". I just had one of their plug wires fall apart with hardly a tug. Now that I've looked at the connector closely, it is not well built. I'm going back to real OEM wires.
