The recommended spark plug gap for a 2001 Ford Ranger XLT depends on the engine size. You
must check your owner's manual for the precise specification. The manual will list the gap for your specific engine (e.g., 2.3L, 2.5L, 3.0L, 4.0L).
Don't rely on generic information found online; using the incorrect gap can lead to misfires and engine damage.
