[DeTomaso] E3 SPARK PLUGS

[Larry - Ohio Time Corp]

Hi Jeff,

This will give you .000001% more HP...ya I do it.

The ground tab on top of the plug is not always in the same place as to
where the thread starts on the plug. So when you screw a plug into the head
the ground lug can be in a different place. Now you also have think about
the tapped hole in the head, it can seat the plug in a different place too,
(moving the ground lug around.)

You want the ground lug on the spark plug pointed away from the main spot of
the combustion chamber. This then points the gap and the spark at the sweet
spot.

You need a gage tool that you screw a spark plug in. It is marked around the
edge with numbers, like a degree wheel. With the head off (the best way) you
try plugs out till you find one that points the way you want it. Pull that
plug out and put it into the gage. The ground lug lines up with the #2 on
the gage. You now know that spark plug hole should always use a #2 aligned
plug. When you change plugs you test them in the gage till you find a #2 and
put it in that spot. This needs to be done for each plug hole and recorded
for the next plug change.

Enjoy your .000001% more HP!!

I'm not familiar with indexing the plugs, what is it and what does it do?

Thanks,
