I tear down my engine about twice a year last time I did was august 8th. The plugs look fine. I'm running 8.8 accel wires with the modern wide cap. Also the petronix ignition. I checked to see if the wires were ruted correctly checked out fine. Plugs are clean but I'm going to be replacing them soon for the n20. I just want to get rid of this missing before I spray. The only thing I could see that had something wrong with it was the cap and rotor. I haven't checked to see if any of the wires are arcing yet. Started to rain and didn't stop intil a few minutes ago. How do you guys recomend I check for arcing wires?
