There are a couple of "correct" tools. Here is a poor picture of one:

Some guys have been known to use needle nosed pliers and then wonder why the plug stopped working.

(Boy, I hope the forum picture re-sizing gets fixed soon.)

Great info here.

All of my Denso's were at like .028 out of the box. I took them back to the place I bought them and they tried to gap them. After the first one, which looked a little scraped they said they couldn't gap 'em either.

BTW, this is for a set of IK22's on an N/A application. Any recommendations???

Denso lists .044 as the gap.

This is correct for your application.

Thanks xviper.

Now any recommendations for what tool to use to gap them??

Another member of this board used the usual gaping tool and broke 2 of 4 electrodes. The ground prong is very rigid in these plugs and of course the .4mm irridium electrode is very fragile.
