i would go ahead and throw a distributor cap and rotor buttonon it while you are changing everything, that can help alot too. get one with brass terminals, they are better than aluminum ones.

May want to spend a little extra and get a GOOD set of wires. If not you may end up with some electronic noise you don't want.

RE: Misfiring code?
yes !. You may want to check the egr valve, the breeder, check the radiator fluid for discoloration and replace if necessary, check your air filter, watch the air houses from the throttle body, and look for any soft houses caring radiator fluid.Also to see if your engine dos trou any code at you.
Good look!!
