				560SL spark plug gap
			 
			
			
			Just picked up some NGK plugs to install.  The manual calls for a gap of 0.032 inches.  Is this what you guys use?  I know there is a camp that contends that a larger gap, like around 0.038 or so is better because it gives a stronger spark and more complete combustion.  I use a larger gap on my ponton with no problems, but am not that familiar with this engine.
