AX spark plug gap
Hi, I am 'lumbered' with getting my grandsons AX ready for MOT. What is the correct spark plug gap for a just under 1000cc engine? The BOL says it is at the beginning of the relavent chapter-rubbish and the Citroen manuel says that this an important measurement for the efficient running of the car but does not state what it should be. If all else fails I will set it at 27thou. and hope. Gerry

Hi, the BOL states that information is given at the begining of the chapter, but it is not there and I can not find it anywhere in the book. Gerry

Thanks for all the replies, I am used to older cars which had a 25thou gap and that is just the thickness of my thumbnail, there's a handy thing. Gerry
