So can this incorrect gaping then do engine damage?  What is the proper way
to adjust the gap if its preset too wide?  If its too narrow I assume its
fairly easy to widen it with a flat head or something.  Gotta check mine out
now - I changed 'em about 6 months ago and assumed (I know I know never
assume) that Bosch's being such a higher brand and more expensive tha any
automart store brand would be preset correctly.

Thanks,
