The Plug for number 3 on the coil pack keeps almost sliding off... I know what it feels like when it runs on 3 Cly. It wont rev over 4K and if it does, some relay clicks, and the Tach Drops to 0rpm, then back to the current rpm's..

Maybe I should have not put the Delectric grease on the coil pack end?

pull the boot back if you can
try bending the plug wire end slightly - for better grip

although :) you may never get it off again once it's installed!! :lol:

are these OE plug wires?

Nope I got these from Autozone, the brand is Xract or something like that, they look just like the OEM plugs, and fit the same just that I'm having problems with one plug.

eeeeeew... well therein lies your problem.

aftermarket wires, for the most part do not fit right
and pop off often

again, you could try crimping it a bit to see if you can get it to attach.

good luck

I think I might take the dielectric grese off that plug, the dealer wanted $54 for the same plugs.
