[DeTomaso] Sparkplugs

[Brent Stewart]

This is all great, but what should the GAP be?!?  I know, another can of worms just opened :-)

Actually, i gap mine at .045 and have great success over the previous .035 that was in there.

Don't waste your money on fancy gimmick plugs with multiple electrodes, platinum, iridium, or other exotic sounding materials. And do NOT use Platinum plugs - they require much tighter control of air/fuel ratios only delivered by EFI.

Buy quality inexpensive Autolite plugs and replace them more often, and save money over the other 'name brand' plugs. Or, replace them at the same interval you would have replaced the overpriced big-name plugs and save even more!

Autolite AP24 or AP25 (Autolite catalog lists them both, one for the Boss 351 [351C] and the other for the 351C)
