Default Fitted new spark plugs......

I have impreza turbo 95 n reg,
I have just fitted new spark plugs (platinum 6s), i put them in standard to start with and the car starting splutering under accelaration, so i took them back out and was told them to gap them 0.7mm, and now when the car is ticking over it feels like it is wanting to cut out.
Does anyone know what settings i should set them at, would be gratefull for any info.

take the coil packs out, remove the rubber boot from the tip and check for cracks and splits, basically any marks on the end, means new coil pack time, as you had them on and off you have damaged them that way.

changing the plugs has just made them worse/cracked them more
