Standard heat range Spark Plug (per Clymer manual): NGK DPR8EA-9;  gap 0.7-0.8mm

isn't .07 mm a little too big of a gap?

i got my plugs set to .045

Clymer is wrong on this one.  They say .7-.8 mm or .028-.031 in.

NGK sez DPR8EA-9 plug with .035 in. gap for all years 89-02.

My 97 owners manual agrees with NGK .8-.9 mm or .031-.035 in.
