Hi,
If you are replacing the plugs, either of what you indicated is fine. The manufacturer gives a range for setting the gap. In this case, it is .052 - .056.
I attached a pic below from my manual. Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.
Take care,
Joe

Hi,
I wanted to add a quick video showing how this is done. I'm not sure if it is needed but I thought I would add it in case.
