Parts for your 2008 Toyota Hilux-Spark plugs

2008 Toyota Hilux spark plugs — what they do, and when to change them

According to Toyota’s factory literature for this generation Hilux (2005–2015 Repair Manual and the 2008 Owner’s Manual), whether spark plugs are relevant depends on the engine. Petrol Hilux models (e.g., 1TR-FE 2.0L, 2TR-FE 2.7L, and 1GR-FE 4.0L V6) are fitted with spark plugs. Diesel Hilux models (e.g., 2KD-FTV 2.5 D-4D and 1KD-FTV 3.0 D-4D) use compression ignition with glow plugs and do not use spark plugs. So if this 2008 Hilux is petrol, spark plugs are a key service item
