Default Spark Plug Wire..

I have a 97 Accord F22B2 engine. and the Spark Plug wire seems as if it's gonna come off any second, Like it's gonna pop off while i drive. Everytime I pop open the hood it's alot higher compared to the other 3. Anyone know what's going on here?

It's somewhat common. Mine poped off once and I noticed a power loss and found the cable laying off to the side, I just went out and bought some clamps from autozone and put them on each cable off the distributor, never happend again.

Is the spark plug tightened up? Maybe some one cross threaded the spark plug and it isn't seated? Could it be an oddball plug wire? Does it match all the other wires?
