   I have a set of NGK spark plugs which I bought for my old VTR. Will they work in my 16v GTi? Are they same size, gap etc?

   according to haymes manual all the TU engines run 0.9mm gap. The plugs I bought to use on my VTR when I had it. Does the 16V engine run the same thickness plugs?

   the plug socket ive got fits both 8v and 16v, so i presume they're the same size?
