Hello!

I've been working on a 1978 Dodge Aspen R/T for the last few months, and there a few things I need to know in order to continue.

Number one: What is the correct spark plug gap?

Number two- The Aspen originally came with electronic ignition, but a previous owner installed a mechanical system. I have no idea what the gap on the points should be set to in my mechanical distributor.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

0.17 on the points should be good. ( Updated) Sorry i was thinking plug, i miss read the post....

 

there are soooo many bennies to an elec setup--i'd put one back on pronto.

 

What motor is in it? That's the first thing we need to know to help you...

 

I would think 318 but of course I'm totally assuming.

 

Yup, it's a 318.

 

0.035 or 0.040 gap on the Spark Plugs
