Started my 6 from it's winter storage and it appears/seems like it's running on 5 cylinders. I pushed on each of the spark plug wires to be sure they were seated. One wire shocked me .. youch. I'm thinking this is the problem and I will replace all wires. I just wanted to get the groups opinion on this solution. Thanks for the help, It's probably time for plugs, cap, points and rotor too. Just wanted to verify that if the plug wire is shocking you, it's bad .. correct ?

If you received a shock from a plug wire then the insulation has broken down somewhere on the wire. An easy test is to start the car in the dark and then observe the plug wires. If you see any arcing they need replacing. More then likely your wires need replacing.
