This is my first car.

All Ford spark plug gapping is .045. They should come pre gapped but just check it to make sure, ma dude.
Reply:.050 according to the motorcraft.com website but recommends using the label on the engine fan cover where it's printed small if still there.





Also to answer another poster.. it actually depends upon the engine and design but plug gap in the last 30 years is usually .044 or .054 as a rule with .050 being a average between the two
