text: If the gap is too small, pull the body of the plug away from the disc with the electrode hanging on the lip to gently force the gap open and re-measure it.
text: If the gap is too small, the spark does not have enough space to be generated with the necessary power to ignite the fuel.
text: With current engine technology, universally incorporating solid state ignitions and computerised fuel injection, the gaps used are much larger than in the era of carburetors and breaker point distributors, to the extent that spark plug gauges from that era are much too small for measuring the gaps of current cars.
text: A gap that is too small will not fully ignite the air/fuel mixture leading to low power and higher tailpipe emissions.
text: If the gap is too small or too big, you need to adjust the ground electrode to match the gap.
text: The gap must be a specific width if the gap is too small the spark doesn’t have enough space to generate the power needed to ignite the fuel.
text: If the gap is too small, the spark will likely be too weak and cause the engine to run poorly or with poor efficiency.
