taking tommorow off from work to hopefully "fix" my ignition and fine tune the fuel injection.....according to what I can find, the stock sparkplug gap should be .7mm (.028") for my 1.8 motor.

I thought that with the CDI such as a Mallory or MSD, I could open the plugs up to .050-.060" (according to MSD documents)

anyone have any real world experiance with this??

thanks
