Taz_Rx Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 Spark plug tubes? I had troubles with mine in my old 5K. You can only buy them new at Toyota. +1 and get some genuine o-rings to go with them too. :cool: Quote
JiP Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 Yes!! I used aftermarket O rings on mine and they leaked. So when I got the new tubes and new O rings they didn't. Just comparing the aftermarket and the genuine O rings in your hand and you can really feel the difference in quality. Quote
charl Posted November 11, 2009 Author Report Posted November 11, 2009 Thanks for the info on the oil leak guys, how do i contact toyota? just get in touch with a dealer or something? pardon my ignorance!! oh and i picked this up today from rick at toyoland for 275 bucks!! Quote
Taz_Rx Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 Every Toyota dealership will have a genuine parts department somewhere in the building. Go down for a visit or just give them a call. :S Quote
JiP Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 Just go to the parts counter at the service centre. Quote

JiP Posted November 23, 2009 Report Posted November 23, 2009 Thats one thing that worries me. The only place to get those tubes is from Toyota and when they discontinue them there nowhere to buy them. Quote
charl Posted November 23, 2009 Author Report Posted November 23, 2009 might have to look into getting some machined up or something eventually? Quote

SLO-030 Posted November 24, 2009 Report Posted November 24, 2009 The spark plug tube O-rings i got in my ACL gasket kit were brilliant. Used them with original tubes on my old 4k and never had an oil leak issue with them. Quote
