Should I regap spark plugs???
Hi!
*About two months ago I bought NGK Platinum spark plugs for my EG Civic (d16z6) and installed them.
After zex 59300 cam install problems accured. After v-tec kicks my engine starts to work snatchy and exhaust gurgles (too many fuel?). After some time working like that, it cleans out cylinders and starts to work fine. Funniest thing is that my ecu got tuned with Chrome after that & fuel proportions are fine,but problem is the same.
So I checked spark in the wires and it's fine. Then I checked all spark plug gap and it's 0,95 , but it should be 1,1 ! Is that much and should I regap it or leave it 0,95 ???

Well you should regap them back to stock gap.
1.1 mm = 0.044 inches (stock gap)
You currently have it at:
0.95 mm = 0.037 inches (difference of 0.007 inches)
Gap it back to stock
