Open box, screw into engine, leave for 20,000 miles. I've never needed to gap an iridium plug yet and I've changed hundreds (probably a slight exaggeration) of them over the years. -- Beav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19

I haven't replaced plugs with gaps in for about 13 years (Rachel's Sprint, the 116 had multi-electrodes). They weren't out either, but I used to check. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) 116 Giulietta 3.0l Sprint 1.7 GTV TS GT 3.2 V6 Triumph Sprint ST 1050: It's blue, see. www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk

However there's a chance they won't come with screw caps either (mine didn't), so if you haven't got any spares laying around, prepare for a trip to your local motor factors to buy four of the cheapest plugs they do with removable caps. Make sure they are removable too - many aren't these days. -- Krusty
