One of the most basic and easiest replacements you can do when the engine does not perform properly. And yes, a bad wire can cause a cylinder to be "dead" or misfire. That "Idiot" was probably 100% correct.

I don't understand why you call him an idiot. He suggested you had a cylinder that wasn't firing, ie... no spark. I take it you assumed the worst by him using the term "dead cylinder". Maybe what he should have told you was to check the wires to make sure each plug was getting spark, a logical troubleshooting step to determine why a cylinder isn't firing.

Ignition system is probably the first thing that should be checked out for a rough running engine. Doing so by replacing parts is like going to a Casino. You may luck out once but in the long run your screwed.
