If you go to any auto parts store, they should have spark plug gapper tools. some are a little circle piece of metal and the outside gradually gets thicker and thicker with the measurements in thousandths of an inch.

The actual spark plug gap should be listed on the emissions sticker on your hood. You would remove the spark plug, and use a feeler guage, or a spark plug gap tool to the gap specified on your emissions sticker. You would increase, or decrease the gap between the center electrode and the end of the plug. Hope this helps. mudmanben
