New Plugs

I have a set of new plugs to install. Are they already gapped to the right spec out of the box?

You are not supposed to gap iridium plugs -- unlike normal ones (used iridium on a motorcycle too -- same deal...)

I'd still check the gap, just be careful and read about the procedures for gapping. Don't push down on the ground strap with a feeler gauge in.
