Isn't it in the Haynes?
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

The gap is 0.9mm (35 thou), depending on which plugs it has in.

Some are 1.1mm (40thou).If the plug has 11 written on it, the gap is 1.1mm.
