Boost strangely high for my mods?

I pulled out some of the plugs yesterday and they all looked fine and I regapped them to .055 for those that were slightly off maybe +/-.005. And Scott so is tomorrow on? I get off work a little after 4.

Car isn't in boost most of the time.

Thus the correct heat range plug for that engine load hasn't changed.

We're changing the spark plug temp in anticipation of the 0.1% of the time you see boost.

Might misfire on cold startup till it warms up.

Willing to bet I am going to be stupid busy as of 2pm tomorrow.... I may be around for phone support... Paul can help you with most anything you need tuning wise... Remember I left your PCM 3.4 pulley ready, so it should work fine.

Alright how can I get a hold of Paul? Whats his screen name and I'll pm him or something.

I scanned back when I put the new plugs in and never misfired cold start up but I'm assuming you mean for when winter comes around.

NGK's were cheaper too. bonus.

Idk where you get your Autolites because mine cost $1 each.

To hell with NGK's.

Cheapo copper core AL104's are FTW.

Locally the NGK are about a dollar CHEAPER than Autolites for me. Don';t ask how. It just IS.

as for your "to hell with NGK" comment i guess you'll have your opinion and i'll have mine. the car runs BETTER with NGK. so i'll stay with NGK. KTHX.

Said mods?

What plugs?

Old motors...old technology. Copper plugs, cold t-stats, high octane.

Basic 3.4" setup's...as such the OP's case...a set of AL104's gapped at .050" would be where it's at. NGK's are over $3 a plug here...$1.99 for AL's.

Hey blue I thought I saw on some of your other posts that .055 is where you should gap for a 3.4? Also larger gap=higher chance of knock from hotter spark correct? So would dropping back to .050 be beneficial in fighting even just a small amount of KR?

Nope...I might have said .050-.055...its a common gap size.

Stock is .060"....the smaller the gap, less chance you have of spark blow out.

less fuel ecoecoencocnomy

colder burn?
