AC Delco Spark Plugs
Meineke told me that AC Delco plugs are platinum and so they come pre-gapped. Is this true?
I noticed my old plugs have a gap of almost 1mm. What happens if the gap is bigger than it's supposed to be?

the spark may not happen if there is too much distance for it to jump or may take longer to spark.

OK, so I'll just remember 1.397mm for the ruler. Thank you very much for clarifying that.
One last thing I want to ask is if AC Delco Platinum Rapid Fire plugs are suppsed to have flat tips? The one that I kept with me to install with a new wire has a flat tip, and all my old plugs have a pointy tip. With a flat tip, this plug has a gap of over 2mm. I don't know if the ones that were installed are all like that.
Would anyone happen to know the preset gap of AC Delco Platinum Rapid Fire plugs?

it depends on wether you want the platinum tip, regular, rapid fire, or anything else that is available from ac delco! but yes autozone sells the ac delco plugs. but whats weird is that on my 99 the factory plugs were NGK plugs made in japan and they were not tr55. they looked just like the ac delco plugs but said ngk on em!

Did you buy the car new? I would think someone changed the plugs since there not ac delco plugs.
