it could be either symptoms

auto zone sells a wire tester for like$2 - all you do is run it the length of the wire with the car running and you'll see if there's a bad spot - that how I figured out mine were bad

Good luck

When I burned my stock ones with my headers it was an insane miss when any more than more normal driving, like getting on a freeway or passing someone. I never did have a rough idle, but boy did it spit and sputter when I gave it a little juice.

If your still on your stock wires, It wont hurt to change them anyway.
