Gold Boarder Posts: 897 Re:3 black and 1 white spark plug???? 3 Months, 1 Week ago   Another thing I noticed when I pulled the OEM plugs was the fact that the difference of the spark gap between the four of them. Belive it or not... there was a difference of nearly .003" between one and the other... But, now I think about that... could that be planned? I mean, if one side of the cylinder burns cooler (or, the opposite of hot...) Could the difference in the gap (bigger gap cooler spark, or is it vice versa...)make a difference in efficiency?   Logged     Over 50...?

Most likely the plugs weren't gapped at all just stuck them in.   Logged     Black Ice is Shinny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #124483 StarCruiser06 (User) If you can't be with the one you love... Wait! Gold Boarder Posts: 897 Re:3 black and 1 white spark plug???? 3 Months, 1 Week ago   Yeah, I've heard of the wire gauge thing too... But, I've used this disc for so long now, I can pretty much get within .0005"... I do know that I've gotten the new plugs all within that .0005" measurement and I've seen an appeciable increase in power... I've spun the tire twice from a rolling start...

It is indicated in the manual at between... .031-.035..

They work just fine. Of course, if a copper plug is firing fine, you're not going to experience a difference. My buddy thought his was running better, but he had more than 6k on his, and chances are it was going to need plugs by 8 anyway. Mine didn't have 4k on it, and I could feel no difference, but then I just wanted to put them in and forget 'em for the next 10 years. I always put some anti-seize compound on the threads too.   Logged     Sig pic deleted - larger than 450 pixels and 50 kb   The administrator has disabled public write access.
