well ive been having a problem with my spark plug wires that they have been slippin out..2 of them inparticular....each time i put them in a couple days later they're out. its the second new set i buy in a month...and i had the same problem with both...i asked for help on this and someone told me that my piston might be over firing...im just trying to look into that. i doubt it could be an internal problem i just think its the rubber boot on the wires thats not letting it fit right but i dont know

It's a small knee shaped plastic valve, its usually behind the motor around the intake manifold area. U can get a replacement at any auto store. I'm not sure how the wires would pop out but if the gaskets on the underside of the valve cover around the spark plug holes are worn it could possibly pressurize the are and pop the wires out. A bad pcv valve can make this happen even quicker, do u see oil on those two wires too?? if so that might be the problem. I have never seen it but theoretically it could happen.
