Time for new wires. The wires are insulated to prevent cross sparking or grounding. Seeing sparking means the insulation has cracks or a rubbed break in it. The HV system on a cap/rotor ignition system is not high enough to cause corona if the insulation is intact. Solid-state ignition with a distributor-less coil pack is a different story, but this engine is not that type of system.
