Dunno, car seams down on power. I wanna make sure the gap is correct. I could have easily bent the electrode while cleaning them.

Well, I know that the B10egv plugs should have a gap of .022

I dont know if its the same for all plugs or just those

I usually gap my plugs to 20 thou. Note that I am still using the factory Mazda Series 5 (1990 Turbo II) coils.

What "race plugs" are you using? EGV? What ignition setup? What fuel? What power level? All these answers may affect what gap to use, but start at 20 though and see how you go

Anyway, hope this helps!
