Finally decided to start doing some stuff myself on my 2000 Crownline 180BR. It's been running a little rough when I first start it so I thought I'd do a tune up. I've had for just over two years and thought it might have the original plugs in it. It was a chore to get to the plugs because somebody put all stripped headed screws to hold down the cover that goes around the engine. Once I got that off getting the plug out was a pice of cake. I spent two hours getting the cover off though. I will put new screws in with good heads because that should not have taken more than 10 minutes.
Well when I took the plug out it's an NGK R BPR6EFS. I'm assuming they have been replaced at least once since it's not an AC Delco and the plug looks fine to be honest, but I will replace them anyway. Wires and cap look fine so I probably won't even bother taking the Distributor Cap off. Just put in a new set of plugs.
The sticker on the flame arrestor says to gap them at .045. Is that what most people gap them at? Should I get AC Delco or just get another set of NGK's? It's been running fine so I don't have any complaints. Just kind of felt like doing something to it on a cool day.
