I had a lot to do today so I couldn't make it to the meet, but part of the work was doing a tuneup on the new beater(99 Tacoma 4x4 pickup standard cab 4cyl 5 speed) and it looked like nobody had ever touched the plug wires so I figured they might be the original spark plugs. I picked up some new NGK plugs and sprayed some PB Blaster in around the plugs hoping they wouldn't give me a fight. Sure enough, they are the original spark plugs with 126K miles on them!
2 of the plugs had the electrodes worn down to the insulator and the other 2 had the ground worn almost to a point! And somehow the guy was getting 22 mpg with the truck. This thing runs pretty good so it should make a good beater.
