Proper plug gap

[Jo060]

Out of curiosity. I thought I read that the factory plugs gap is 0.028" - 0.032".
The plugs (NGK zfr6f-11) I bought for the engine are gapped to .44. Which is correct?

The factory plug gap is correct. Smoosh those ngks down.

carefully smash them on a flat hard surface untill they are were they need to be. you will need a spark plug gapper

Apparently NGK ZFR6F plugs are for our cars but they only sell ZFR6F-11 in the stores which are for N/A so they have to be gapped.

I had mine at 44 and it chose when it had power broght mine down to 30 and there is power all the time

He is saying the gap was too wide and it blew out the spark under throttle... I think

That's exactly what I ment I was told to do mine at .044 and the car ran like crap and thought to my self too check my camaro that is strictly a drag car that has a full msd setup and I only run .035 so I brought mine down to .030 on my mazda and runs perfect
