I recently purchase 1998 S70 T-5 with a manual trans and while doing the inspection for ordering parts for stage 0 I took 2 plugs and the gaps were really crazy.The plug in 1st cylinder had a gap of 38" while the next cylinder was 34".
The plugs are original Volvo and was wondering how often I will need to recheck the gap on the new plugs once install???

    I would check at every other oil change interval. The Volvo plugs are pretty good, but the electrode will eventually wear down.

    A stick? Did you also buy a Lotto ticket?

      Hola Klaus,
      My mother in law does the gambling for our family. My luck really stinks when it comes to does games.

      I did look for almost 2 years before I bought this car. I am no speed demon but will do some basic mods probably next year. The arrangement with the wife was that I will only spent the money that I get from doing side jobs. I am jack of all trades master of none!!!

      Thanks for the info,
      Speedy
