I need some in depth education on spark plugs...
Before installing new Autolites at the track today it was recommended I set the plugs at 050. I noticed something when trying to gap the plugs. The ground really started to pull away from the electrode meaning this particular ground on this these plugs was short. Trying to get to 050 really pulled the ground away and actually out from the electrode. End result the ground is no longer "under" the electrode and I actually stopped at 045 instead of 050 because it seemed to far out of place.
Questions:
IF the ground is to short..
Is this an issue if the ground is pulled out and not aligned under the electrode?
What brand plugs do you guys run and at what gap?
thanks in advance,
Doug
