      What is the modern replacement plug for said motor?  Model 442. It has Champion 6-M in it now. Thanx in advance,Mike.

        A Champion D-14 or Autolite 386 should work.

          Does anyone have an idea what the gap should be on the spark plugs?

            The 1942 Service manual says a Champion M6 plug gapped at 0.025 and the points at 0.020.

            If you are having spark issues even after cleaning and setting the points, there’s a good chance the condenser has gone bad, especially if it is original.
