plug gaps for a 1700 Xflow?

[DavidL]

Hi,

Does anyone know the correct sparkplug gap for the Caterham 1700 SuperSprint engine?

 

Thanks, -David L., Menlo Park CA (1990 Caterham DeDion, 1700 X-flow)

Looking at my 1993 Caterham build manuals spec's for the 1700 SuperSprint engine:

 

Plugs: NGK 8EV

Gap: 0.025

David,

What type of ignition are you running? FI or carb?

 

Cheers,

Thanks everyone. The engine is as sold by Caterham USA: twin Webers (40 DCOE's), Lucas distributor with Petronix electronic ignition. I am the second owner. I got the build manual with the car, but didn't find the specs.
