going too small increases the chances of a misfire due to carbon deposits or just plain gunk flying around (it can and WILL!)
going too wide places too much load on the ignition system, and it will either burn out or find the path of least resistance. which is usually NOT across the plugs gap!
1mm. a thou is 0.0254 mm, 1mm is 39.4 thou.
anything from 25 to 50 is fine... you dot even need a feeler gauge, just a geusstimate
you will have more satisfaction finding out how a tuned pipe works and making one, or how the CDI works and wow...making one, than mucking around with the plug gap. the reults are far more worthwhile
