Spark Plug Gaps

What is the gapping for the plugs on a 96 explorer? The manual says to check the vehicle emissions decal...what a joke! All I want is the gapping, is this too hard to put into the manual?

Spark Plug Gaps

For some time Ford has been listing the spark plug gap in small print on the decal affixed to the radiator cross-member. Look, you'll see it. Not a bad place to put useful information, right under the hood where your working.
