Spark Plug Gap for NGK BKR6E

[Telltell]

Hey guys. Quick question: What is up with all the different gaps?

I got a NGK BKR6E from pepboys. Pepboys tells me to gap at .050.

My Owners manual says NGK (although a different one from the BKR6E) set to .028 - .032.

And my my Chiltons repair manual says to go .039-.042.

Which should I go with? What do you guys feel? Thank you. I appreciate your help.

Specifically the NGK spark plug box says "BKR6E-11 2756"

The choise of plugs chosen for about 99% of this board run NGK BPR6ES gapped at .028-.032................ I have not used those plugs but gap them at the .028-.032


EDIT: Noticed you have an N/T my statement is correct for the factory turbo models, I am unsure about the 420A. My applogies

.028-.032 is Turbo Gap Specs

My repair manual says non turbo 1.8L SOHC and 2.0L DOHC is 0.039 - 0.044




I would recommend 0.042 - 0.044 if you drive......Spirited


I just set mine at a dead 0.044
