      Everyone’s spark plug gaping?

      I do know when I first had my 09 aveo5 running lean and misfire codes and whatever else BS crap so when I looked up the gap was .44 and I read somewhere somebody said drop the gap down smaller I did that a year ago but I don’t remember what I set it to I think between .31 and .35 or .36.

      It's important to note that changing the spark plug gap can have a significant impact on engine performance, and adjusting the gap outside of the manufacturer's recommended specifications can potentially cause further issues. It's always best to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for spark plug gap, as it's based on the specific design and engineering of your vehicle's engine.
