A brief comment. I use the DRE 6000 and love them. ATC is crisp and clean
and I am wear hearing aids for what it's worth.

Spark plug gap??
--> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Rex & Jan Shaw" <rexjan@bigpond.com>
I have been running NGK BR8EIX Iridium plugs for some time now in my Blue
head 582. I can't tell you how many hours exactly because my log book is not
here but I'm on my second set. One thing I'd mention is you should be using
non resistor caps with them.
I find they run much better than BR8ES normal plugs. On the box it says not
to regap them. I think this is due to the likelyhood of breaking the very
fine centre electrode so I just run them as they are and they are great.

Rex,
What is the factory gap on these plugs (out of the box)?
