Just an update, and a plug for Advanced auto parts..who did me kindly..

I couldnt find my receipt and none of the local stores had my warranty information on file, however they agreed that they were there brand of wires. They were out of stock, so I had to skip across town to another store to actually make the exchange.

No big deal... I had taken the engine cover off in there parking lot, and removed the wires, I reinstalled them..(I drew a little diagram on the last page of the owners manual of the firing order) and drove to the other store..

When I put them on I repositioned the leaky wire (the longest one) and the car was indeed smooth. To the point I felt like maybe I wouldn't go all the way to the other store for the replacement set, however I knew I should see no voltage leaking and there was still an intermittent stumble while holding steady at 40mph in 4th..

So I made it to the next store and made no hassle exchange..that was cool...
I installed the new wires in the parking lot and drove off...

all smiles!...problems solved... car accellerates super smooth and that new car feeling is back again. Amazing what a bad wire can do
