Re: spark plug gap
what size engine do you have? with the 3.2 you should get at least 350 miles from a tank. I do.

.044 in is about 1.1 mm, which is very close to the same (different by .05 mm is nothing.)
if you own a metric feeler gauge use the setting closest to 1.05 mm if you have an imperial use a .044" feeler gauge. are you sure you are burning a full tank of gas or does the gauge just go from full to empty very quickly? could be the gas gauge. Are you blowing oil, black/blue smoke in the exhaust, frequent oil addition? could have a siezed ring? reply with some more info and someone can probably help.
