those wires were bunk.

I’m guessing the high heat (summer) may have broken down the silicone glue in the boot or something, possibly causing poor attachment to the plugs. Try tightening the noose on the end of the boot with some pliers. Check it out at night to see if you can visually identify spark leakage…

I’d just replace those whack wires
