1. skyalert Says: The right # on the plugs match the recommended # but do you still need to get the the gap? gauge out and set it according to specs on the package?

2. Daniel B Says: If they are mass produced ones for several different cars and makes then check the gap. If specific to your car you don't need to worry.

3. Internet management.ca Says: I have checked the gap a few times but it is always correct so i don't even bother anymore.I guess if you have the tool handy you could check one,just to see if it is correct.But they should be correct and you wont be taking any big risks putting them in without checking the gap.

4. Patrick Jablonski Says: you gap it if you are buying from the brand if you get specified spark plugs for your vehicle then you don't, but you should still check that its right just to be sure

5. Paul b Says: You would want to double check the Gap, Most of the time they are still correct but if they were dropped during shipping or being stocked you could have the wrong gap on one or more

6. Dennis Says: Always check the gap it only takes seconds to do

7. opinionated Says: always check,,they can't be set right for all the diff cars they fit.
