Cyl 6 Misfire

Cyl 6 Misfire Is it possible to have this arching at cyl 6 WITHOUT a leak in the wire? Is it wrong of my to be livid that I have a bad wire out of the box? I used plug pliers to install them and dielectric grease on each end. I don't know how the hell I could have been anymore carefull.

Did you pull the plug and switch it and check it out? Unlikely to have a bad wire at exactly the same spot. I'd focus on what hasn't changed.

I'd check for a hairline crack in the plug insulator (I had this happen once to me).
