    I've tried searching but I can't find what I need.

    I'm using autolite plugs in my 96gt but want to know what I should gap them at. I'm getting some pinging and I think it might be from improper gap.

    Also I'd like to know what coincides with a smaller gap versus a larger gap. What does what and where's a good starting point.

    thanks

    .054 Gap

    O2(AIR) particles are larger than Fuel particles

    Leaner mixture= larger gap, SO it can get into the gap.
    Richer mixture= Smaller gap.

    Understand? :)
