NGK Platinum plugs?
Hi, just bought a set of NGK Platinum plugs, and I think they need to be gapped. I got the gapper but don't know the gap our cars need.
I have the 94 Max GXE with SOHC
TIA

Correct. If the gap is off, always take them back and have the clerk find some with the spec'd gap. Turning it into a DIY gapping party it a great way to kill a new set of plugs. I learned this the hard way in my late teens.

well ain't that some sh*t, the autozone guy knew nothing. Didn't even tell me to buy anti seize gel, I had to tell him.
I used this tool to gap it. I used a tool like this to gap my platinum plugs, hope I didn't destroy brand new plugs.

It could be, as long as you aren't prying between the ground and electrode. You can do it with a pair of pliers, just grab the ground strap and gently open the gap. Use the tool to check the gap, just not to pry the gap open.
