Jul. 30, 2007 - curious to know... Do people typically re-gap their new plugs right out of the box, before installing them?

Get the original equipment type iridium spark plus and do not touch the gap...they are pre gapped and good to go in the box

for the 2.2 liter engine:

1. Gap the spark plugs to 0.045 inch (1.1mm).

for the 2.4 liter engine:

1. Ensure the spark plugs are gapped to specification: 0.042 in. (1.06mm).

for the 3.5 liter engine: Adjust spark plug gap to 0.043 inch (1.1mm).

I am looking at my owners manual for my 2003 Trailblazer Vortec 4.2L L6 (this is the inline 6, the option for a V6 is not available for the 6 cylinder). Per the owner's manual Spark Plug gap is .042 inches and the firing order is 1-5-3-6-2-4

no engine stated? wow. 3.5L? says no gap settings.
its in the FSM. many cars dont put it in the op guide as the plugs
are rated to 80k miles or more, and is not consider, operator deal.
sadly.
and many folks think the new plugs are set in the factory , WRONG. (comment is for J plugs not surface fire tech)

i see you are there.!
many stores, list it wrongly too.... vast....
but you never said country car was sold.
in the USA we open the hood, look up and behold, its right there.
the vacuum and turn up sticker,
now alldata.com
quotes to follow.........all.
the original equipment spark plugs installed in the Odyssey 3.5L V-6 engine are platinum tip spark plugs, and the plug gap must not be adjusted.
and other warnings, and the no file them warn.g
On CR-V and 4-cylinder Odyssey models, adjust the spark plug gap to 0.039-0.043 inches (1.0-1.1mm). On Odysseys with the V6 engine, check, but do not adjust the spark plug gap. The spark plug gap should be 0.039-0.043 inches (1.0-1.1mm). If the spark plug gap exceeds 0.051inches (1.3mm), replace the spark plug.

so 1mm , if not v6

If it's a 4 cylinder then you have to remove the "coil pack" from the top of each spark plug. Should be a 10mm socket. then using a long reach spark plug socket, remove the spark plugs. Make sure to set the "gap" of the new ones before you install. Then re install the coil packs and secure them.

If it's a 6 Cylinder then remove the plug wires from the top of the plugs, then smae as above but you will probably use a spark lug socket and a short extension with the rachet, Once again be sure to "gap" the plugs before you install. best to do the plugs ONE AT A TIME, so that you don't mix up the wires.

I believe that the gap you need is .035 . My personal vehicle is an '88, and i set my plug gap at .035. This has worked fine for 10 years. Also, the plugs that work the best are nippondenso u-groove. My mileage and power seem to be the best with these plugs. (this is for the 2.4 litre 4 cylinder, but i believe the gap also works for the v-6.)

4 cylinder/6 cylinder motor--gap is .044.
But depending on replacement choice of spark plug, the gap should not be adjusted for some choices.

The non-turbo 2.2 Liter engine?
6 Degrees.
Should be on your Emissions label under the hood.

(Firing Order is 1-3-4-2. Front of the vehicle is Number 1 spark plug. Distributor rotation is -> Counterclockwise. Spark plug gap is .044
44 thousandths of an inch)

Turbo 2.2 Liter engine?
9 Degrees. Emissions label is under hood.

(Firing Order is 1-3-4-2 Front of vehicle is Number 1 spark plug. Distributor rotates ->Counterclockwise. Spark plug gap is .044)

I don't know if your vehicle is a 4 cylinder or 6 cylinder. This will make a difference in the # of cylinders as well as the placement. If it is the 4 c ylinder when you open the hood it says at Autozone.com that the spark plugs are on the front of the motor lined up 1-4. If it is the 6 cylinder then you will have 3 at the front of the motor and 3 at the back of the motor. Regardless it is the same concept. I don't know for this particular vehicle, but it is possible you may have to remove a large plastic engine covering in order to access the spark plugs. What I recommend is to replace the spark plug wires at the same time as the plugs. For all my vehicles I use NGK plugs and NAPA auto parts has the best plug wires I have used - Belden Maxx. Prior to starting you will want to check the "GAP" on each new spark plug. Using a spark plug gap tool available at parts places for about $1. Take the new plug and the non-porcelin end (the end that has the arc) insert the arc into the gap tool at the lowest end and slide the plug around until you reach the corresponding "GAP". For this vehicle it should be .44" (I checked on Autozone's website but you may want to check to be sure. At some of the part's places they may tell you that you don't have to check the gap, but believe me you alway's should. I just did a car where they insisted that I didn't need to check the gap and each plug was not gapped properly. The Arc on the plug has to be specific for your vehicle or you will have too much spark or not enough. After gapping the new plugs you are ready to start. Somewhere on the side of the motor you should see either 4 or 6 wires/cables branching out to the cylinders. Starting with whichever you prefer (do only one at a time to avoid confusion) trace the wire/cable to the cylinder and where it goes to the cylinder a "boot" covers the spark plug. Twist the boot until it comes off . If you are going to replace the plug wires take that one off and match it up to your new set (They will be different lengths). You will need a ratchet and a spark plug socket (available at parts places) The spark plug socket has rubber on the inside to protect the porcelin of the spark plug, and to provide grip. You may or may not need a small extension. Place the spark plug socket over the end of the spark plug and apply pressure until the spark plug begins to loosen. You may have to apply quite a bit of pressure if they are in there tight. Once it is loosened take the old plug out, and place the new plug in the spark plug socket. Don't use the ratchet at this point, just begin to thread the plug in by hand once it is in there as much as you can get it, tighten it down with the ratchet making sure not to over-tighten. Do the other cylinders in the same manner.
