You should always gap the spark plug in accordance with the owners manual of the outdoor product you have. Replacing a spark plug you will need a apark plug wrench or a socket wrench to get the job done.

I'm very happy with the service that I received. My parts were delivered quickly and I was back to mowing my lawn in no time.
The parts that I received were high quality, the same as I would have received from a parts supplier without running around town trying to locate someone who had them in stock.
