spark plug suggestions | The De Tomaso Forums

zfettMember

any suggestions on spark plugs? getting ready to replace the ones in the car now. they have been in over a year and I figure it's time. Also what gap should they be? or just leave them gapped from the factory. Thanks

zfett..........Im now back to Autolite AP25's. I tried some NGK's that seemed to run a bit cold. The gap i'm at now is .040. Look at the website for gap settings, i'm 99.99% sure someone had run theirs closer to .045. (with a non-standard ignition system).......

Im running a MSD6a Box, Accel Coil, MSD distributor....etc

I run the Autolites mentioned above also, with a standard Dura-spark unit.

I've tried other plugs, but returned to these.
