Start the engine in the dark and watch and listen for arcs (they'll sound like very distinct "snaps") You can also hit them with a water mist from a spray bottle in your suspect problem areas.
Damaged insulation on plug wires can definately cause problems as the current will take the easiest ground path, and with damaged wires that usually means it never gets to the plug!
The 10.4mm 409's are nice wires, they have extra-thick insulation which adds a lot of dielectic resistance and additional heat protection.
