You're talking about the spark plug gap right?

I just put in some Bosch Doubles and they came pre-gaped. I check them again when I got home anyway and they were close enough for goverment work.

The last few people I helped with plugs all the plugs came pregapped from the dealer or if you get the right ones from the parts store they are already pregapped right. I could be wrong, in fact I might not have any clue what I am talking about on this. I have only just started to mess with the motor on this car.

But my car is running even better then ever now and I am getting the best gas milage I have ever gotten, with great throttle response. I would have to guess the plugs were gapped right or I would be fouling out and missing.

Enjoy,

most will be pregapped if you buy what is suggested for your car. You should only need to regap them if you have aggressive programming, etc...
