yeah, .028 is what i'm going to check the gap as.. I'm really just looking for a decent, cheap gapper tool. I'm going to get a wire gap tool and just make sure .028 is on there. Seems that both .028 AND .030 may not be possible w/out spending more than I'd want... (cheap volvo owner)
The plugs I'm going with are of course, NGK copper... Although, the Volvo brand is awesome but pricey. Bosch is cool in a pinch, and nothing else as far as i'm concerned, will cut it.
I'm still a little concerned though with the ignition coil. It seems to be a cheepie from Rock Auto made for an '88ish w/Chrysler ignition. Since the car in question is an 89, it doesn't fit completely perfect. Not sure if it's gonna be a problem or not, but we'll see. I have plans to replace that with a nice Bosch one in the future, though.
