Gap them as wide as you can without causing the spark to blow out at WOT. I'd start at 0.060 and close the gap a bit if you are missing a lot.

Also, try using some punctuation and sentence structure. That post is incredibly hard to read.

Not trying to be rude- but if you want a lot of help on here, you're best off to take an extra couple seconds to add periods to future posts. No one expects perfect grammar, spelling, etc- its just a car forum- but put yourself in our shoes: you've got 235 words with no periods or line spacing to separate thoughts- just one massive run on sentence. So for us to be able to help you, we have to read through it trying to separate the thoughts and sentences ourselves- trying to decipher what you're trying to say.

If you won't put in the effort to press the period key between thoughts- many people won't put the effort into posting a reply, much less reading your entire post. Don't get me wrong- single sentence replies don't require any punctuation to get your point across. It doesn't really have anything to do with being proper or not- I'm sure your post makes perfect sense to you since you wrote it and know exactly what you wanted to say; but for someone else (especially members who don't use English as their primary language)- its tough to read.

Again, I don't mean this to be mean or rude- I'm just trying to get you to see it from the perspective of other forum members; and to hopefully get you more help in future posts.
