Spark Plug Change
I just purchased new Bosch Platinum 4 plugs and want to install as I was having some issues from a ancient plug. Does anyone have a torque spec for install on a 87 turbo ?

I don't know if those plugs are to be used with our vehicles, but to install plugs use 16mm Plug Wrench and torque to 13 ft-lb as stated in the TSRM

A little late but I'm pretty sure you don't want to use platinum plugs in the turbo supra. Apparantly they burn TOO hot. This is just what i've been told from a few reliable resources

Yea, I would never run any Bosch plugs in a Supra of any kind, go for some NGK Iridiums, they will be a little more expensive but well worth it, they are high quality plugs. I don't have Iridiums but I have their regular plugs and set of their wires, they are both great!!
Good luck. |
