My personal opinion, run that gap as open as you can.(.031") Some may agree, some may want to kick me in the face with a golf shoe[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

more spark IE length..... more complete burn of the fuel

I'm sure if Bear was unchained, he would prolly give you a more complete answer

Biggy D could prolly shed some lite as well

evenin' PSAR!

This weekend we get ready for Coos... MH and trailer get washed, quads get loaded, referigerator gets turned on... Unfortunately, quiet cores get installed. But I'm really looking forward to not working... the weather can do what it wants, I'll ride if the weather is good, hang-out if it isn't. Workin' 'till late at night gets old after a while, luckily there is an end in sight.

Thought about picking up one of those propane fire rings... they looked kinda cool.

Went to the chiropractor Monday and Tuesday. Tuesday he moved something that was painful, but it feels pretty good now.

Ray, congrats on the new truck and trailer!

How bout me, don't I count [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]



Since the gap size has a direct affect on the spark plug's tip temperature
and on the voltage necessary to ionize (light) the air/fuel mixture, careful attention is required. As a rule, the more power you are making, the smaller the gap you will need. A spark plug's voltage requirement is directly proportionate to the gap size. The larger the gap, the more voltage is needed to bridge the gap. Most experienced tuners know that opening gaps up to present a larger spark to the air/fuel mixture maximizes burn efficiency. Many racers add high power ignition systems, the added power allows them to open the gap yet still provide a strong spark.


If it were me I would put her @ 0.30 and call it good [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Anyway the guy came over looked at it checked it out and wrote a $300 check to hold it until I can meet him at the bank tomarrow afternoon. 4300 Smackers in cash and he can have his quad and his check back!
