Plugs were tan in color when I pulled them last summer while tracing what turned out to be a faulty fuel pump relay. I'm assuming the plugs are now black because of failing ignition.

Thanks guys. For all I know, the cap and rotor are original. I'll order a new o-ring to go with the new cap and rotor. Hope that gets me going again.
