I had a theory that the reason that my ignition wires are pushing up is because there is some pressure, underneath, forcing them up. Solution: I cut a small groove in the gasket that is on the end of the wire, making a pressure release. Works to perfection, just don't cut the groove too deep. Before groove- a wire wouldn't stay on more than a few miles, since the groove- it's been several days now and still no problem. Forgive my artwork, but I attached a pic that shows the groove from the top and from the side.
