I dunno what the hell is wrong with this, but it keeps happening to me. I poped my hood the other day 2 add some washer fluid. When i was whiping down every thing, i noticed that my second sparkplug wire from the passanger side was poped out a bit. The other 3 are all seated down properly, then the one is poped up. I also noticed theres a bit of dirt n grime under where its poped up. I can push the wire back down and it seats properly when the engine is cool. When i drive, if i keep the speed down, below 50km/h, its fine. If i go over 60km/h, the wire pops up. These wires are only like 3 months old, and have never had a problem with them b4. Any one have somethin like this happen to them??/ know what the problem could be??

^ looks like a reactive, they sell em at cartoys or online I think.

very odd, does it still make the connection to the spark plud when its up like that, I hope your not running on 3 cylenders. (i have seen an old vw rabbit run on just 1 out of 4, its was great biggrin.gif ) anyway, you said there only 3 months old, are they a cheap brand, maybe there not a perfect fit and when the motor wiggles around wile driving they shake lose, I would maybe try a diff brand cable or something.

PS: woot i got 4 boxes now biggrin.gif
