Need ya'lls help real on spark plugs
 
I bought new plugs and i read that the standard size for [both]: 1.15mm-1.25mm (0.046-0.049in) for the gap, but when i checked my trailing on the new plug it was 0.030 even the old plug it was that size. could a smaller gap result to unburnt fuel?

If you bought the right plugs, they are gapped correctly and don't need to be adjusted. I don't trust the source you pulled that from at the moment.

These are the part num for the plugs RE7C-L (6700) and RE9B-T (6701)

Yup, you got it right. Just install, don't mess with the gapping.

The only gap reference i can find within the first 150 posts is copy and pasted from sparkplugs.com. So my statement stands, I don't trust it.

Leave the gap where it is :)

FSM sys...

Standard Gap .046-.049in

Max gap leading .059in
Max gap trailing .055in

It also says to avoid possible damage to the tip do not adjust the plug gap :)
