Hey guys.

Getting new spark plugs for my car. Never put any in before lol but seems simple enough. Just one question.

I have been reading around and found out that people seem to prefer a 0.8mm gap. I have been looking at the platinum fusion plugs but they have a 1.2mm gap. Can I change the gap myself? do I need to specifically order in a correct gap size?

Hey Dan, if you can get them pre-gapped, it'll save a bit of time, but not too much of a drama doing it yourself.

I did mine with a feeler gauge and tapping it on some wood.

You can buy the F6 ones (or wrx from memory too) that are pre done to .8mm

Cheers

Dan

It's like an infinite loop when you McMerge em... :spoton:

Although some have short memories it seems...

Guys

Ive had a custom tune now for a while and i dont think i have had any issues with my spark plugs but was told to get some new ones because once you up your boost the plugs dont have there great life span any more.

What size gap should i have? I am running 10psi.

Cheers

Guys

A quick one. What is the gap for the spark plugs do i need for a 10psi custom tune?

I have just bought some new NGK plugs and they are automatically set at 1.1.

Thanks in advance.

Adrian

:stupid:
