Plug gap??
Ive seen two different gap specs, .44 and .56. Which is correct? I would think that the bigger one is right, more gap, better burn. I have a stock ignition. Which one should I go for and not have to worry about damaging anything.

i tried that once with my mg and i had a girl over helping me. i didn't even think to gap them, i let her help me put them in, It turned out that was the reason i couldn't get it to start again. I always gap mine now. Only i don't think it would make as much of a difference in my truck.

The fact that the plug is pre-gapped to .044 does not make it right. I had problems with my 1974 E-100 because of a too-small gap, hard starting and failed emissions test.
