Yay or nay? I was changing the plugs on my girlfriends 88 Suburban with a 350 engine, and the guy at O'Reilly's advised me that NGKs are most beneficial for imports and bikes, and the best thing
for my application would be AC Delco Rapidfire (I went for plain AC Delco plugs - budget issues
)
I, myself, have had a good experience with NGKs, but in a Mitsubishi, and Ford 302 engines.
P.S. The same salesperson recommended that the gap
on the plugs for this engine be set at .045. I have listened to him, trusting his judgement/expertise.
After finally looking up the spec,
I found it to be
.035 in every single source I can find (online catalogs for O'Reilly's, Advance Auto Parts, hard
copy catalogs at various parts stores). The engine runs fine, but my current plans are to re-gap the
plugs to .035 the first chance I get. Any thoughts on this issue?
