The gap should be .040. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find.

I am attaching the entire procedure on how to replace the plugs for this engine which includes the gap spec that is listed above as well as the torque specs.

Plus here is a guide that will help with some more general information on tune ups:
