Default Quick spark plug question?

If your sparkpLugs are not gapped right, Can it cause bad hesitation to the motor?

Bad hesitation, misfire, hot spot, denonation, etc...Just gap it right.

How do you gap it right?

Go to an auto store and buy a spark plug gapper or feeler gauge. It should be about 0.039-0.043 In. NEVER bend the side too far too often cause it will break and never bend the center electrode. DO NOT GAP PLATINUM PLUGS!

There is a sticker under your hood that tells you the spark plug gap.
