spark plug wires and resistance
Would the 4 plug wires have different resistance (ohms) due to length?
Trying to figure out what may be causing problems with my car.
Form longest to shortest plug wire:
1.17 K
1.05K
0.79K
0.65K

Yes, the longer the wire the greater its resistance. Measuring resistances in wires should the absolute last thing you should be doing to resolve an issue.
What exactly is the problem you are having?

Been trying to track down a lean issue. Everything points to intake leak but pressure testing/ smoke testing finds nothing. trying some other things this weekend. plug manufacturere said 0.400/foot so sounds about right.
