Re: I need help with my spark plugs
Spark plugs are not "pre-gapped". They make plugs fit many different vehicles. But the plug gapper for a buck and follow the emission sticker recommendation under the hood. The original AC Delco plugs should be a CR45TS, with the C being a copper core. Platinum, split fire, and all that other stuff is a waste of money in a stock engine. Maybe if you were looking to drop a tenth of a second in the quarter mile..............

Also, the gaps get changed when they have impact in shipping. I have sold a lot of plugs working at a parts store. Trust me - gap 'em.
