104175, Spark Plugs
Posted by bzoss, May-07-07 07:22 AM
I posted a few months ago about having problems with missfire. I have since fixed the problem by gapping my plugs to about .028". First of all, this just seems like an excessively small gap. Secondly, I am curious if anyone knows the part number for the NGK plugs that come pre-gapped to .030". Mine are factory gapped to .050" and they don't perform well when they are regapped that much.
Thanks for the help.

anything ngk that ends in -11 is pre gapped to .44 (1.1mm) really common for asian cars, I don't recall seeing any other suffixes on ngk plugs that related to a factory preset gap

Are you turbo? If so, you will want the gap to be lower if you are using a stock ignition setup. I have mine gapped to .28 also and runs perfect. NA and stock are around .40-.44 I believe.

I use BKR7E plugs with 8mm Accel, to regap them to .028 I would have to pinch down on them abit by hand.
Have you guys tried Bosch Platnium+4 plugs their pregapped to .030
