    Requesting thoughts on to changing all coils and plugs on my truck that has 140k miles. Coils and plugs have never been changed storm the time I purchased with 88k miles. What brand coils and plugs would you also recommend?

    Welcome to the forum!
    Stick with Denso coils and plugs. Beware of counterfeits on Amazon and Ebay. I've received plugs that failed after a few hundred miles on Amazon.

    I would start by changing the plugs. Which cylinders are misfiring? Denso coils are not cheap ( $50 each on Rock Auto,$100-150 from dealer) I would only change out a bad coil

    Thanks for feedback. I went ahead and changed coils and plugs but now getting crank shaft code. So next on the list is to replace the crankshaft position sensor. Do I stay with the Denso brand through rockauto.com or can I go with Duralast from local auto parts store?

    Like @koditten stated check wiring and plug. I had a code and found the wire had been pinched which caused it to throw a cel.
