I just wanted to Throw this out there. I thew in a set of NGK 5610s last night and found that the stock plugs in my car (fomoco) were gapped at .030!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Started the ngks at .038. I wondered what the deal was. I think stock was supposed to be around 40-42???? The car was only touched by mazda before I got it at 30k miles, its around 44k now. Input?????
It smoothed it out alot, still getting flames out the back between shifts though sometimes....

I know this was to him. But I'm kind of lost on this whole issue.

I checked my stockers (FoMoCo) and they were dead on at .028 gap from the factory. So I'm guessing I am in one measurement and others are using the other?
