spark plug gap

[R_B_NITRO]

I have a 1995 nitro with a mercury 115 oil injected outboard and i'm going to change my plugs once i get it out of the shop, having a new waterpump put in and i'm wondering if anyone knows which plugs i need and what the gap might be on these plugs? and is there one plug that will give you more performance than the other?<br /><br />Thanks ray

Hey Ray,<br />It's me, Hooty, over here in Coppell. Welcome to iboats. <br />I've got all OMC stuff and can't keep up with the Mercury stuff. I do know that the hot Merc guys run NGK Plugs. I just don't know which ones.<br />Keep your post up close to the top and somebody 'll come along and put ya on to the hot ticket.<br /><br />g'luck & c/6<br /><br />Hooty

Re: spark plug gap

Ray ,Your engine calls for NGK sparkplugs.<br />BP8HN-10 or BPZ8HN-10 both gapped at .040.The BPZ is the resistor plug.They will have the same performance but the resistor offers less interference with electronic equipment.The P indicates that it is a platinum plug.
