a plug gap of 0.08 isn't good :blackeye:
but I still pulled 29 mpg on my last tank of gas :laugh:
for some reason yestreday when I was changing the oil I decided to pull the plugs since they have close to 100k on them as I think they where last changed around 104k .... plug 1 &2 had about a 0.08 gap where plug 3 and 4 were 0.05 as they should be. however those have part of the electrode tip missing back to the platnium on it.
only other odd thing was plug 1 and 4 had oil on top of them and down the threads, luckly I had already changed the valve cover gasket so I think it was just left over.
and for 100k the plugs didn't look to bad. the ceramic at the center of the plug was a nice lite brown and alittle bit of black carbon build up around the outside edge.
so I suppose its time for a new set of plugs and wires ....
