I think it's .06 but if you get Bosch Platinum plugs, you won't have to worry about it.
1 plug per cylinder so 6
A 6-cylinder has SIX and a 4-cylinder has FOUR spark plugs.... Am I missing something here?
The firing order for a 1980 Buick Skylark with a 2.6 L 4-cylinder engine is 1-3-4-2. This means that the spark plugs fire in that specific sequence to ensure proper engine operation. It's important to follow this firing order for optimal performance and engine balance.
It's a royal pain... The back plugs are the hardest to get at if you have a 6-cylinder engine. It's not impossible but you might have to rely on sense of feel. (Who designs these things anyway?)
Just follow the spark plug wires....
Faulty: spark plug, spark plug wire, ignition coil, ignition module, fuel injector are the most common. Coolant leaking into a cylinder is another. Internal engine problems such as burnt valve, broken valve spring, bent push rod, worn rings

.060 is the typical spark plug gap for your engine.
Under the engine cover is the coil pack housing. Remove the engine cover to reveal the coil housing; this unit attaches to your spark plugs through the spark plug boots and retainers. Inside the housing are your two coils.
.060 (Double-check with a Buick dealer's service center. They'll know for sure).
There would be six spark plugs for a six cylinder engine. One for each cylinder. Unless it is a diesel, then there are no spark plugs.
On a 1996 Buick Roadmaster, the spark plugs are located on the engine's cylinder heads. This vehicle typically has a V8 engine, so you will find the spark plugs on either side of the engine, beneath the ignition coils and covered by the engine's intake manifold. To access them, you'll need to remove the ignition coil packs and possibly the intake manifold, depending on the specific engine configuration.
