FI Newbie Q: Spark Plugs for a SC S2000
Hey guys,
I'm running a Comptech SC on a MY04 and looking into replacing my spark plugs.
I received a recommendation to change it to the NGK 7173 .034mm and understand that it needs to be properly gapped.
I'm new to FI (and S2k for that matter...) and did the search but:
Is there a proper gap spec for comptech SC?
What does it mean when a spark plug needs to be "a step colder"?
Do I need to gap my own spark plugs? If so, what kind of tool do I need?
Sorry for the newbie questions...thanks!

Didn't I already answer all those questions for you?
Get the spark plug gapper at an autoparts store. Be careful to not touch the element too much when testing the gap.
