Recommended Spark plug gap

Share this page

Plats in the Alfa, they seem to last a LOT longer in there. Don't last fer squat in the B tho. Champion N9Y's last forewver in the B. Weird.
 
I asked the guy at NAPA for NGK plugs for my B and this is all he had. Will this cause me troubles?
 
Good. I'll remember that for next time. Too 'spenisve.
 
Hi There People;

Being an "Ex NGK Spark Plug Reg. Sales Mgr": Boy, There`s a mouth full!! On "STD. ENGINES" the BP6ES`s are just fine with a .025 gap:

With the "Petronix" probably a good idea to go .028 - .032 gap: The best & only way to know for sure is to run ea. gap & see where your performance is:

Have Fun;

PS: I had to run "Platinums" in my TR4A cause I had Headers on the Car (At least thats what my Brit Guru Mech had to say): Std. BP6ES`s just spit & sputtered all over the place???
 
Well that is good to know also because I plan on getting the Peco hdr & exhaust system one day real soon.
