I'd still replace them if not at least check that you dont have spark leakage. Do you know how?

other than looking at them at night no sir I do not, I do have a multimeter, is there a spec for ohms on these? thanks

I'd start with the nighttime check its easy and you dont get messy. If you search this forum you can find the specs. I dont know them off hand. Also someone said if you spray (lightly) water and test at night too.
