Farmall md spark plug gap

[Eddie V]

Have a md farmall that's been sitting and trying to get it running what is the correct gap for the spark plugs?

I think .17-.18 mag, .20-.25 distributor , if I am wrong someone will correct me soon.

As per the I-T manual distributor point gap is 0.020 Mag is 0.013. and plug 0.025

Don't remember the correct gap right at the moment, but do yourself a favor and get the right plugs before you go any further. Old Champion number is D89D, new number, 543. They're salty, maybe approaching $10 a throw, but well worth it. Brillman has them, but my last several sets were bought from NAPA, who got them next-day for about the same price. You'll be glad you did.

Checked this out before somewhat. Owners manual for a M lists .020 to .025, SMD .020, 400D .023. MD used a magneto and a distributor would be standard on the others unless a mag was wanted.
