Anyone know what this should be. I've got all the parts to service this
from my local Honda dealer (Grays) but forgot to ask what the plug gap
should be. It's the 1.6 Vtec engine.

Any help appreciated.

What model of Honda is this? Civic, Accord, Prelude, other?

The information should be available at the free repair
guides under www.autozone.com . I have a 93 Civic Chilton's
manual that also has the gaps, if this is a Civic.

Doh! sorry! Its the civic 4dr saloon VTi. My first honda and impressed by
the vtec engine. Got an oil weep by the 'vtec valve'(?) on the LHS of the
head, looks like the only thing that needs attention - not bad for 108k
miles.

Gap's supposed to be 0.039 to 0.043 inch for the 1.6L 1993
Civic.

You should get another 100k miles out of her easily.
