I was reading some other threads, and seems like the plug below may be good to get?

NGK (4589) IFR6T-11 Laser Iridium Spark Plug

Thank you for that link, after reading I feel its no big deal, so ordering plugs next. Anybody think Denos better than NGK? Also I read about cleaning MAF sensor and throttle body, will look for thread on that as well, thanks!

Denso or NGK works.

Completed the spark plug change today, went very smooth except I found a few split hoses when I removed air cleaner box and that other black box on passenger side. I was able to cut off bad ends of hoses on most and reattach but the one that I believe to be a ventilation hose #2 is shot, so will replace tomorrow and hope that fixes check engine lights. Anyway thanks for the help on plugs!
