Spark Plug Gap?

EDIT: Never mind. I found it in the manual.






What is the gap supposed to be on each of these spark plugs?

1)
Honda Part No.: 12290-RB1-004
Spark Plug (Skj20Dr-M13) (Denso)

2)
Honda Part No.: 12290-RB1-003
Spark Plug (Izfr6K13) (Ngk)

My IZFR6K13 came pre-gapped. I checked them and they were right:
1.3 mm or in the service manual range of 0.047 to 0.051 inches

Because my life is, for some reason, a living hell, I cannot find the download of the service manual on my laptop. However, you can get it here --> https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...p-manuals.html.

On another note, you trust that plugs will be appropriately gapped out of the box? Isn't that like saying that you believe her when you're girlfriend says that she loves only you?

As I said I checked them to be sure, but they were.

You'll want to check the gap but on Iridium plugs you should not re-gap them because it risks damaging the electrode. If the gap is wrong, take it back to the auto part store and exchange it.
