Gap should be 0.025" for a ignition system running points (i.e. an original type setup). All new plugs that you buy these days are set up for electronic ignition systems which provide a much stronger and bigger spark and so it is able to jump a larger distance. New plugs are gapped to 1.1mm. I always gap my plugs to 0.025" and have never had a problem. |
