What do i gap my spark plugs to??????

[Big Blue]

Hi everybody ya'll have probly seen my other post asking about how i get to the plugs/wires on my 3.1

 

Anyways i thought this would be the best place to ask ,i just bought some Ac delco model num(R44LTSM) spark plugs and a gaper tool.

 

the libery isit open tommorow so i can't get a book to tell me and i really need to do this tommorow :x

 

i don't know if it's like a lawn mower that should be 0.30 and i want to get this right(LOL)

 

so what should i gap my new plugs to???

 

if you know any websites that could help me on this that would be real cool.

 

btw it's a 3.1

0.045

 

are you being a smartass are is that real number

 

it might be funny to you but to some it's not :x

[89oldscutlass]

0.045 inches is what your suppose to gap them on. If you have a plug gapper just gap it on 45. Im not being a smartass just answering your question.

yes it says that right under the hood if you would bother to look

Should say on the emission sticker.

[digitaloutsider]

Nice LARGE black sticker in the middle where the hood latches. Has the emission system shit on it.

[White93z34]

in fact it looks alot like this ignore the fact that is a sticker from a grand national

 

and the :withstupid: icon prety much means "yeah, what he said"

IM real now,on the emission sticker it says 0.045 but in my manual i got for my regal it says to gap them to 0.060 and torque the spark plugs to 18ft pds.

 

so witch one do i go with.

 

i know im not doing that 18ft shit because there is a lot easyer way to,make sure the plugs are snug and then do another half turn with wrench and there set properly.

 

my grandpa(who was a licensed machanic) did it like that for years and every shop i've been in where they were doing tune ups they did it like that

 

But anyways do i say what the book says are do i go by the emission sticker

 

im so close to getting this damn thing done :x
