whats the recommended gap settings for spark plugs on a B16B? I am using NGK iridium plugs.

Thanks

1.1mm i think. Thats what all the pre-gapped NGK's are set too I think anyway.

yeh most iridiums plugs are pre gapped but you can get ones that haven't been gapped for the b16b, there usually 0.9-1.0mm, i think

As said above 1.1mm

not a good idea i bought pre gapped for my impreza and they where all over the shop . better off checking them just in case

Your joking every set i'v had has been fine they've all been .8mm i think. Ok then take back what i said and check them carefully with feeler gauges. If they are out you will need the special iridium spark plug gapping tool. Don't try the everyday gapper or you could easily break the tip.
