Stock gap should be .052 - .056 like stated above. You're running rough because they're not gapped right.

Just do like 96GT said, gap those plugs in between .052 - .056 and then see what you get from there. If its still not running right, go get you anotherset of plugs.

did you physically check the gap with a gap tool? If not, then you need too, just because they say they are pre gapped doesnt mean they all are.... a few of mine needed to be adjusted.

Sounds good... Thanks. But just incase they are gapped properly and it still runs like crap. Which plugs would you all recomend I get. Just trying to cover my a** so I don't have to bother on here again and already know where to go from there. Thanks a lot.
