Spark plug gap with boost
I have a set of autolight 24. I gaped them at 32... I am puting in my s/c in a couple days so I wanted to put in my plugs now before I start the s/c install... After I put them in a started the car and my idle is searching... Is the gap to small with out the s/c installed??? It sounds like all are fireing.. Checked all connects seems ok... Any ideas
Thanks

.032 is awfully conservative.
i spray 80-100 and gap .042" on stock coppers
but i doubt that you would have driveability issues. i would check your plug to plug wire connection... if it doesnt "snap" its not on
also double check firing order

That is a small gap. I'm n/a and run my gap at .055 and it will probably tolerate more. Try like .040 and see what it does, if it misfires at higher rpm and/or under higher boost then the gap is too big.

so i gaped the plugs at .042 and installed my supercharger!!!!!
after driving the car for a while and after reaches operating temps im having a surge... belt is not slipping.... cruising im fine... go full throttle and every once in awhile it feels like a miss. or feels like the supercharger belt is slipping but i ahve a boost gauge and its not.. maybe something is getting heat soaked... maybe the gap in the plugs is too big now.
only running 5psi
any thoughts
