The 2012 Chevrolet Equinox comes with different spark plug gap sizes depending on the engine. For the 2.4L L4 engine, the recommended gap size is 0.035, and for the 3.0L V6 engine, it should be 0.043 as per the owner's manual. It's crucial to follow the manufacturer's specifications for the spark plug gap to avoid potential issues in both the short and long term. To ensure your Equinox runs smoothly, it's advisable to maintain the spark plugs within the specified range. If you have a metric tool, you can set the gaps to 0.9 millimeters for the 2.4L engine and 1.1 millimeters for the 3.0L engine. Even if you buy pre-gapped plugs, it's still a good idea to double-check before installing them.
