Question Spark Plug Boots pushing out of tubes

I have a 1994 Celica with 2.2, 4-cylinder engine. What would cause the spark plug boots to push off the spark plugs while engine is running?

I've searched but with no luck. Please help!

Nevermind!

I found a loose spark plug. Loose enough to allow some blow-by forcing the boot off the plug and upwards in the tube. I asked the girl who owns the car who has been working on it, and she said her "boyfiend". Go figure.

Thanks anyway.
