i was wondering what is the gapping for the 200 TL ....

 

What kind of plugs are you using?

 

NGK iridium ix

 

dont touch the gap- the NGK is pregapped and subject to damage very easily

 

Type wouldnt matter as they would all get gapped to what OEM spec is.

And with 01tl4tl

 

never hurts to double check when u open the package. u dont know if one of the parts guy dropped it or threw it.

 

The reason I asked is if he had NGK Iridiums/Platinums, etc. I would've said don't try gapping them. I suppose I should've come right out and said it.

 

gap is .04in or 1.1mm

 

Thats why you buy good spark plugs that have a protective cardboard cover over the thread end to protect the electrode!
Its true that parts accidents happen, and I do visually check each spark plug I remove from any box and verify the electrode is going basically straight across. A smashed down one from impact is pretty obvious that way.
I would be concerned if the average person attempted to regap these plugs.
If its smashed take it back to the store- if you dropped it - take it back to the store!

 

i wouldn't gap them id just check the gap to make sure. u dont know what goes on in the factory. on and dont buy the ones with teh 3 grounds on them. waste of money and if one of them cracks there goes your engine.

 

Thats why we keep saying NGK Iridium- the right plugs for the car

none of that multi electrode stuff in our car!
We run a super fine wire compared to something like B brand plugs
