I gap them to 35. Don't just install them straight out the box. Make sure you check the gap first.

I gapped my NGK's to .60 and now I seem to have a slight tick, it only started right after my plug change. Should have kept the pre-gap!

Yeah good tip. Always check them anyways. When we went to put them in my bro's car some of them were off. Being in those boxes they could have been knocked around a little.

You may not have got the plugs cinches down. Use an impact if you need to.
