I havn't replaced my plugs yet, but here is what the owner's manual says for my 1999 S-70 GLT:

Distributor ignition system


Firing order 1-2-4-5-3
Distributor ignition setting Not adjustable
Spark plugs Bosch FR 7 DC or Champion RC9YC
Spark plug gap 0.028" (0.7 mm)
Turbo-charged models: Champion RC8PYP (or equivalent)
Spark plug gap 0.03" (0.75 mm)
Tightening torque 18.4 ft. lbs. +/- 3.7 ft. lbs. (25 Nm +/- 5 Nm)

Hopefully what all these OEM replys mean is to buy the recommended plug in the manual, not necessarily pay the dealer $7 per plug when parts shops have them for less.
