Default What'* the smallest spark plug gap you've seen?

Smallest I have seen is the Bimmer'* .027 gap. I had to double check it in my service manual and sure enough ".027".

I've seen 0.00000

Then thought that maybe there was an issue when that plug got dropped.

Older ign systems with spark not as strong as whats in our cars and most new vehicles require a closer gap, especially in an older veh. with points ign set up
