The spark plug gap is usually on a sticker under the hood or in the owners manual. It is usually in the range of 0.045 to 0.060. Don't believe the guy at the parts store when he says the plugs are pre-gapped.

Certain spark plugs you don't adjust the gap. Spark plug manufacturers may have different gap recommendations. If you want it in inches, try .051 or 1.3mm

What is the gap for autolite spark plugs, for a ford bronco 5.8L

You should always use the sticker under the hood of your vehicle. If for some reason your says .052-.056, then that is what you use. The stickers on the truck will have the most specific info for that truck of anything. Autolites have a history of causing poor running for some reason. I've never used them

2002 ford zx2. I replaced the timing belt and the car is timed perfect but still wont start. Any suggestions?

Check for spark, if no spark check your crank position sensor, cam position sensor, plug wires, ignition coil, plugs properly gapped.

If you have good spark, check your fuel pressure, if good check your coolant temperature sensor.

Double check that you CORRECTLY aligned the marks on the timing belt, double overhead cam engines are more involved and require a specific procedure.
