At night, If you open my hood and look at igntion coil in between coil itself and metal casing, You can see blue spark. The same when you look at ends of plug wires around plugs. I have new coil, cleaned all wires/connectors/grounds, and hace new wires. Any ideas I try anything

Hi there,

check that the spark plug gaps are not to wide, if they are the spark will always arc to the easiest earth, over wide gaps will tend to force a voltage teak to earth, start here.
