Thanks in advance

Victor,
I can find this information for you, but "which sparks are indicated" do you mean firing order?

Tanks for your prompt help.
Regarding the "spark plugs" I only need to know
the reference/type.
Thanks

Victor,
Here are the specs as per Francois:
Plugs= Champion NY7 Gap= 0.60mm (.025 in)
Valve Clearance Specs/ intake=0.15mm(.006 in)
exhaust=0.20mm(.008 in)
Now, I'm sure you may read plenty of other choices for plugs, but this is what he uses, and I will use too!

Out here on the Left Coast, people seem to like NGK BP6ES. Patrick Ottis tells me this grade of NGK plug is about the hottest you can go without preignition, so they stay reasonably clean around idle. That's what I've got in my 330, also gapped at 0.025" - an amazingly tiny gap if you're used to modern ignitions.
