Okay, thanks for the clarification.

My point was that it happens to other cars as well, and my old A4 was one of
them- the electrode popped when I was at full boost, killed the car on the
highway, fortunately I was able to get off the road. Caused by a loose plug-
at least two of the other plugs were finger tight as well.

Funny thing is, I've not seen this in other cars, although Peter mentions
Ford 4.6s. I guess I should check the plugs on the Volvo and the Subaru.
