Spark Plug Gap for 300 I6 ?

Post by Canuck »

Trying to find the spark plug gap for the 300. Neither my Haynes manual nor the original Ford shop manual seem to have this detail.

Googling around, I've found 0.44 and 0.50.

Does it vary with the type of ignition (points vs electronic) ??

If memory serves me, something like: points ignition, plugs should be 0.35, Duraspark or Pertronix 0.44.
