Jumping spark at distributor
 
I am using the oem Beru braided plug wires and recently there came up a spark that's jumping from where the wires plug into the distributor. Causes the engine to hiccup and misfire at part throttle. I got a shock when I tried to check the connections to the plugs from another wire (at the head). What could be the cause of this? Leak? Old wires?

thanks,
dave.

could be..how old are the wires? OEM new, or OEM 30 years? Could also be simply a bad connection, not the wires?
