Gapped from the company = all different gaps. Be sure to check them. I think it was .035.....Think.

That's WAY different than my gap...don't ask what mine is I forgot for sure but I'm thinking .52?
Don't buy Bosch plugs. I've heard only bad things about them for our trucks from Autozone to my Ford mechanic. Autolite is good stuff man.

well me and my dad finally got around to changing them....well everything went fine, we had to remove the whole intake and in the process the alluminum intake chiped at one of the ends well that gave me a bad(HORRIBLE IDLE) so today he helped me pull it back off and we used some good bonding stuff, I think it was waterweld??? if that didnt work we found a totaled 92 Ford Ranger w/ the 2.3L and I could use the intake from it, and I coul;d have a spare engine :)
