Sparks from plugs to engine
is this even normal?
i dont usually see this but it was getting dark and i could hear weird noises from my car near my alternator, actually come to think of it i havent looked at that yet still.
Anyway from the plug part nearest engine, and around the metal casing i can actually see sparks from them on 1 and 4 cylinder areas (end two, if thats not the correct order). Coming from the plugs to the engine.
I hope this is normal, i never know with my car if its going to be a normal thing or turn in to a major car-threatening problem.
thanks for the help. (again)

its time to change your plugs
its the rubber insulation braking down that allows the spark to escape
