spark plug problem
I had my truck warming up at work and when i walked outside i heard a terrible noise. When i get to my truck and raise the hood i find that a spark plug had came out. The threads were not messed up at all it is like it just unthreaded itself. I went back inside and got some tools and it srewed right back in to the head. I guess what my question is is it possible for it to unscrew with the plug wire still on it? Should i worry about doing it again if it did it once?

What you hear is the sound of everyone collectively scrathing their heads.

Had it happen on an old beemer one time on I-5! Strangest thing but just put it back in and drove off...just like yours...it was hanging by the plug wire.
