James, whats the correct spark plug gap for my car (1996 2.0 16v)? Haynes says in it 9 but points out that is for champion spark plugs, but I have ngk v groove in my car. Is it still the same gap? and are these plugs the best ones?
cheers

off the top of my head im not sure of the gap, and i would say those plugs may cause a few issues, i stick to regular NGKs as in the past (in my experience) the V-groove ones have led to poor fuel economy and driveability issues
