    they come pre-gaped champ, simply undo old, and put in new, remember dont do them up to tight, they snap

    I personally always check the gap before hand. Out of 18 plugs only ever had 1 that was out so not bad odds

    I always check my plug gaps. Sometimes they need a slight adjustment. Your car will idle and accelerate much smoother with perfectly gapped plugs.
