thanks guys for all your input! I'm new on here and this seems like a really informative site! I've read alot of horror stories on here about the spark plugs breaking off, so i'm alittle nervous about whats to come! I guess i'll just hope for the best! hopefully all of the advice i have read on here will make the job easier! I bought my truck a few months ago used with 107K on it, and it ran great! Since then I have 112K and changed the ball joints,rotors,calipers,tie-rod ends, and tires! Now i have a misfire on the #2 cylinder. I am hoping it is just the plugs! Thanks again for your advice!

They don't make those for the 3v........your ONLY choices are MC, Autolite, Champion, and Brisk.
