which ones should I use for my 2ltr air cooled? in the Wiki Kev the revs recommended the Spark plugs Bosch W8CC electrode gap .6mm. Everyone else agree? Tried looking in the haynes but no specs oddly. I want to order some this week and wont have time to check the ones in the van so thought id ask here first!
