    When I had that car detailed the same thing happened, but they just dried everything out by using compressed air, then all was good.

        I am replacing the plugs too...the ones that were in there were single ground and the owners manual calls for ONLY double grounded. Plus they looked kinda dirty so I figured some maintenance would be good for it!

              Yeah it was the plugs from what I can tell...no issues after I replaced those. Toyota sure screwed up on that engine design I think...that's way too much "work" just to change plugs!

                  you need one of my intake manifolds. 🙂 then it takes 1.382 minutes to change all plugs.

                    Is this intake manifold you're talking about one that includes/goes with one of those snail type contraptions?

                      Yes, your car would be much happier with one of those snail thingies also.
