Reading back through the archives (as I do before changing ANYTHING on my car), I was looking for some comment on the increased gap recommended when you install a Lucas Sports Coil. Everyone says 'in

I think this is the best you will find in the archives, as I recall. I think most people just experiment until they find the gap they think works best. I set mine at .030" (I think). I an not aware o

The fellow who was giving the Tech Session at which I heard this was Hal Kramer, retired electrical engineer. The context was T-series engines and MBTE blended fuel. Hal was talking about the benefit

My Nissan P/U has electronic ignition that is stock. It uses NGK BP6ES-ll plugs. These plugs differ from the BP6ES in that they are configured for a gap of ~.040". If you gap a BP6ES to .040" the ele

The II in the plug part number refers to 1.1mm (the factory set gap) which is between 0.043" and 0.044" Rick

I recently put a Pertronix Flamethrower coil in my 79B, rated for 40,000 volts. Earlier I installed NGK BP6ES plugs gapped to .035 as suggested in the MG manual. A previous owner replaced the points

So Bob, what is it like having your words quoted back to you after so many years :-) ?? Thanks to all for your comments and suggestions. Strangely enough even with the old (original) coil the spark g

Haynes says 25 for the 25D4 and 35 for the 45D4 and 45DE4. 40 is not unreasonable for a sport coil. Never heard of 'large gap' plugs, the single-electrode Champion and NGK I use are adjustable for an

I knew I was going to get in trouble with that post about NGK BP6ES vs BPGES-ll plugs. I shall explain further. The BP6ES were designed with gaps of .035" max in mind. When electronic ignitions that

It simply can't be true. Look athe curves. Given any coil, as the rpm increases beyond a certain point, the high voltage to the plug decreases. It's a subjective thing, ya see. BT, DT. CR
