Pulled all the spark plugs and inspected them. Number 5 & 6 seemed pretty fouled up, also some carbon deposits around the threads and at the base of the porcelain. This could possibly the cause of a misfire. Aside from the carbon deposits the plugs are all dry which is good. The rest of the plugs still had deposits but not as much as the other two. I swapped the plugs with the Autolite plugs that I took out when I put in the NGKs. I put new dielectric grease on all the wire boots and reinstalled everything. This time I was successful in covering the ceramic of all plugs with the boot so it should help insulating from arcing.
