Spark plug gap

[04S]

I need to know if anyone has the spark plug gap for our cars and the brake bleed procedure. I will be flushing the brakes this weekend and needed the order it must be done

[Zembonez]

Brakes are always bled starting with the furthest away wheel. On a left hand drive vehicle the order goes: RR, LR, RF. LF

It's listed here in the maintenance thread:

You dont gap iridium plugs, they come pregapped.

I remember the package for my spark plugs says DO NOT GAP.
For brake bleeding, I use a small vacuum pump to do it completely myself. If it is your first time, you may try the one with dye in it. You'll then know approximately how much liquid needs to be pumped out before new fluid reaches the port.

What pump did you use and as far as the gapping goes i only want to check to make they are properly gapped and not out of wack cause of shipping.

Proper spark plug gap is 1.1mm (0.0433").

I replace my brake fluid without a pump, with a clear hose on bleed fitting looped up and back down into a container. It works by gravity alone, and I speed it up a bit by slowly pumping the brake pedal. Don't let the reservoir go empty. Some of your bleed fittings will likely be seized up from oxidation. Their rubber caps can dry up and/or fall off, and the rear bleed fittings may be clogged up solid with dirt... Good luck.

On my Audi A4 they sell a pump that you fill with the brake fluid and then you close it screw the cap and hose to the brake reservoir and close the container and then you pump it until it reaches 15psi. Basically after that you go to each wheel and let the fluid drain into a container until you get out about 200ml per side. You have to check the pump for each wheel to make it has the proper pressure and I got to tell you with this pump its cake it keeps the reservoir full and does the brake pumping for you

Yes, such pumps do exist, but you don't need one.

Your priority is to see if you're even able to crack your bleed fittings loose and if they flow, especially the rear ones.

I use this one. You may find similar ones elsewhere like autozone and advance auto parts.
You may see some bubbles during the bleeding, but don't worry they are not from the brake line. Of course you can avoid seeing them by wrapping tap around the junction. The container is designed so that when it is full, you won't empty your reservoir. I also use that to change power steering fluid and suck out excess transmission fluid if necessary. You may also try the gravity bleeding mentioned above, but be sure to keep an eye on the reservoir because you don't want the fluid go below the min line.
