How to gap spark plugs..

Alright, there are no dumb questions, just dumb people, i'm one of them.. I got a new set of spark plugs, i've never changed them before. How do i CORRECTLY gap them? I got the tools to do it, i just have never had to do it before.

Thanks..

You will need a set of feeler gauges to measure the 0.035" gap, and a tool to bend the ground electrode to adjust the gap to the correct value.
