I have a 1987 Johnson 88 SPL and am not sure what spark plug to use. I got the boat used and need to replace the plugs. I don't trust the the ones in it now are right. Also would like to know what to set the gap at.

Re: Spark Plug

Use Champion QL77JC4 spark plugs 88lake. Set them at .030. For a better idle, set them at .040....won't hurt top end.

Re: Spark Plug

QL77s are for radio noise supression. Just L77JC4s are fine too if that isn't an issue. They're a little cheaper and sometimes you can't find the QLs.
