Keep blowing plug wires loose

I guess in the midst of hell breaking loose (the sound of pure love), I am having plug wire problems. Engine management takes over displaying "Reduced power", and I am running on 7. I burn my hands and wiggle all the wires and we are back on the road.
4th time for me now.

Magnacore or what is the solution for wires?

Thanks!

Found some fancy wires that everyone is getting. A guy ran on the dyno for an hour and then blew his motor. Got them pretty much new for fifty bucks.

Hate to ask a stupid question, are your spark plugs seated all the way. Not sure I've heard of this happening otherwise. But I'm far from an expert.

We have never Had this problem with Stock or MSD wires but have seen it with other brands.

I was wrong. They are made by Taylor. They look good and no problems so far.
