Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle application before installation and confirm the plug gap against the service specification for your engine. The listed pre-gap size is .032, while the fitment note for the Ferrari F355 Berlinetta references a 0.025-inch gap size, so the plug should be checked and adjusted as needed before use.
