04 1.3 duratec spark plug gap - RB320
Hi All
having read all the dramas about getting plugs out, I can't seem to find what the plug gap should be set for a 1.3 Collection
cheers

Your new plugs should come ready gapped-but an 04 Ka should have a Rocam(Duratec not Endura)engine with no plug concerns.

Gap should be 1.3 mm for the Duratec engine
But only if they're single electrode plugs.
You shouldn't attempt to regap multi-electrode plugs as you will not get the gaps exactly the same.
