Stock spark plugs? I know this may be old stuff to ya'll, but can anyone tell me what the gap is for stock plugs? I Looked on emisions sticker and it's not there?
Also was thinking of changing plugs... Heard alot of good comments on NGK TR55's but the parts stores around here say that they are outdated. Any other good replacement plugs? My car is still stock. Thanks for feedback.
Great site, I've learned alot so far.

Re: Stock spark plugs? i installed ngk tr 55 and i like em. stock plugs are gapped at .050 i think. u ought to change the wires while ur at it. i recommend taylor pro series 8mm or msd 8.5 mm wires. stock plugs are probably good for about 40,000 miles or so. i gapped my plugs at .055. hope this helps.

Re: Stock spark plugs? going to go to ucapia (sp?). to vist sister-in-law. Then taking my daughter to disneyland. Changed out plugs today.We'll be there a week. I haven't been to souther cali since '87 so should be fun. May try to sneek off to TJ. Put in bosch platinums. It took me about 3 1/2 hrs to change oil and plugs, mostly that #@@!#@#!!!! #8 plug. I wonder if GM could make that any harder?!
