Yea I read all over that you should stay clear of grease on the metal contacts on the electrical stuff.
Dielectric grease ISNT conductive. It can cause disruptions of spark travel from the coil pack to the sparkplug. I smeared a decent amount in the hole of the plug wire, which went straight onto the plug/coil so im thinking thats not good.

I had a hard time with the last spark plug wire on the passenger side to coil pack. I put it on 2 times just to be sure but its really hard to get back their im not sure if its on 100%.

tr55's for a 99 firebird trans am v8 is what he got from advance,

but if you bought the plugs specifically for the car the gap should be within spec for the most part. And even if it's off a little it shouldn't be enough to do what you're saying.
Thats what I thought but hey it could be anything. Hopefully well figure this thing out tonight.
