hi guys ,wires are popping off from plugs could be one or more at random only started after a plug change !. Have put some tape around them to make a tighter fit in the head and this is working for now at least !

A DAFT question but are the plugs tight ..sounds like air is coming in from plug hole via plug threads and presurising the hole and forcing them off.......
