If you are using the proper platinum plugs, not some BS plats the gap should be set. Look at them are they all the same. if so they are probably right.

Dont pull on the plug boots by the wires, if they are stuck, make sure you pull on the metal boot and not the wire. Also, put a hair of anti-seize on the new plugs.

davidltad, what plugs did you use? I have a 99 CLK430 and I'm getting ready to do a tune up.
