Has anyone gotten PULSTAR pulse-plugs yet?

[Black Yaris]

I call BS on Toyota there.... if you actually read about the pulse plugs they do not require any more from the coil than a standard plug.... it has the same input into the plug, the "pulse" is generated within the plug.

Six weeks later I went to start my car up after work and it began sputtering and the check engine light came on. My immediate thoughts were that it wasn't firing on all four cylinders. Good thing the toyota dealership is only three blocks from work. I left my car at work got it to the dealership the next morning and received a call a few hours later telling me that my "high performance plugs" and caused one of my coils to burn out. The repair bill was $330 for the labor, four factory spark plugs, and a new coil.

About 10 days later I received a call from Interpulse asking me about my satisfaction with my Pulstar Pulse Plugs. I told them what had happened and my disappointment with their product. Customer service then responded my issueing me a check for the repair on my vehicle. They didn't refund my original purchase on the plugs but they did pay to fix my car. I must say I was impressed !!

So... with my experience I say, "Don't put them in your Yaris". You're running a risk. You may be ok, but don't count on it. You could get stranded with a burnt coil and a check engine light mishap.

I have a 2007 Yaris and have been using the Plus Plugs for two years and they work great increasing my gas mil by 5 miles per gallon I get 40 miles per gallon using them 35 not using them not to mention more power. I think what happen to your Yaris was that you already had a weak coil or a manufacture defect. When a mechanic saw my plugs at a check up he said they where a waste of money which I laughed at because I have been testing them for two years with and without. One very important thing to note is not all mechanics know what they are talking about and very afraid of new technology.
