Sorry to start another spark plug thread. But I've searched and can't seem to find the proper gap for a 2008 4.6L.
I've read .45 and .54. I checked my manual and engine bay for a gap and couldn't find a sticker with the information. Ford parts lists sp462 for my vehicle but I heard sp514 was the replacement plug. They are pregapped at .45 from the autoparts store.
Also, how do you gap the motorcraft plugs? I found a gap tool for the plug, but it looks like it will only decrease the gap not increase it. I've also heard that the motorcraft plugs should not be regapped.
So I've read lots of threads, but I can't seem to find the correct consistent information.
Thanks in advance!
