Do not try to gap 071c's when you are pissed
Thought i would close them up a bit on Saturday night at the Fordsport weekender as i was getting a misfire on boost! Just checked them all and they were all different! No wonder it was no better on Sunday

 

anyway, whatever happened to me hammering yours up the strip

 

 

Spadge, do you gap them like this (below) ???? Some people get confused
and gap them square to the tip, then end up with a huge gap:

 

Doug i did them at that angle mate as was explained to me before i got them
Think i used a lolly stick to gap them Saturday night though

 

I always gapped 'em square up till now

 

This is only applicable with these particular plugs mate!

 

Phew i thought i was a complete muppet then

 

Only with plugs of that design actually.

There are quite a few racing plugs where you gap this way, and even some you gap down the side of the electrode at 90 degrees when you get down to heat range 11 and above.

Horses for courses...

 

Note to self.................CHECK FIRST!

 

I guessed there must be others Stu

 

Any chance on naming a few Stu??

Man you gotta love this site!

 

Clearer view for those that dont know these plugs:

 

you learn something new every day!
