.060 inch (Use AC type 41-940 platinum plugs or equivalent)
I belive .060 of an inch is correct, but to double check. Thereis an emissions tag sticker located in the engine compartment. It will list the engine size, and year of the car. There will also be a listing for the, "gap." This will tell you the correct spark plug gap. Most cars have this sticker.
the spark gap for the 3.1 is 60,

Remove the spark plug wires from your 2004 Chevy Malibu spark plugs. Remove the old spark plugs with a 5/8 deep well socket, by turning the socket to the left. Reverse the process to install the new spark plugs.
