O.k. as of this morning, it feels as if the car has a rougher idle than it has been.
also I changed the plug wires, and it was no help.
I have pulled 4 out of 6 plugs and they all look like they are almost new, I even pulled the hardest one to get to, just in case someone didn't change it when they changed the others.
Plugs are Autolite 606

I know opinions vary, and I stay away from Autolite. I've had many cases of [replace Autolite with factory plugs] to fix issues. Including a friend'* `98 LeSabre with new Autolites and a rough idle.
There are many different kinds of Autolite 606 out there, ranging from get-it-out-the-door quality to double platinum. Your picture of the spark plug from earlier is out of focus where the electrode and ground are, so I can't tell how worn out it is. Based on this, I can't tell what caliber of 606 you have nor can I estimate how worn out it is.
ACDelco 41101 Iridium is factory stock for your car, and it'* what I run in my 3800 with no issues.
