    Leave them at 1.5mm for a standard car. Bosch plugs come in at 1.3mm. Try to change them at least once a year. I change mine every 10-15,000k's as i am on LPG.

    They should be correctly gapped ex factory, BUT it is wise to check just in case. The NGK plugs have the number 15 at the end of the plug part number, this 15 indicates that the plugs have been factory set to 1.5mm
