Hi there,

Bought a new spark plug for my Honda NSR125, BR9EIX. Will I need to adjust the gap or just leave it as it is. Honda recommends 0.7 - 0.8 mm gap, I don't have the correct tool to adjust if it needs adjusting.

Thanks

dont touch the gap , otherwise you can throw it away ! the points are irridium and not supposed to worn , scrapping the irridium destroy the plug . you can scrap the coke between the center and the outside , but dont touch points

That's what I was hoping to hear, I didn't want to mess with it if I didn't have to with it being an irridium plug Very Happy

Thanks guys
