The W16Ys work perfectly. I have had no problems at all. I have purcahsed the W16YCs as they are the current production plug from Champion. The C is for a copper core so in theory they should actually be better. I don't think the gap is that important and either .022" or .025" would be okay, however I have two references and both say .022". I can't remember when I last checked the gap. I have been using these plugs since I got the car (12 years) and they have covered several thousand miles (about 1500 miles in the last 3 weeks!). Dave
