Engine/Power - non turbo (All non turbo Imprezas) Who needs a turbo when you have 2500cc? Cams, intakes, exhausts, etc. The 2.2L and 1.8L Subies are cool too.

plug keeps working itself out

My fiances 96 2.2 impreza keeps having this one wierd quirk. The front passengers side spark plug keeps working itself loose ever couple of months or so. After a couple of months the CEL comes on and there is a smell of unburt fuel (can only imagin why LOL) so I check it out and the darn thing is loose....and repeat. The threads look good on the plug, and I am hoping that the threads in the cylinder wall are not stripped. Since I am new with this engine is this a common thing? And any other things I should keep a look out for? Thanks
