2 wires won't clip tightly on the Coil Block 93 Ranger 4.0

Is there an issue if two of my spark plug wires don't clip tightly on that Coil Block with those plastic clips. I'm not sure why they don't clip, especially because they are Authentic Motor Craft Wires and the coil block seems to be fine. Anyone else have this problem? Engine seems to run fine, but I'm taking precautions in case. The other 4 seem to clip fine. It's weird.

Did you try jiggling them side to side to see if they clip? I've heard of this happening on aftermarket coils, but can't tell if yours is original or aftermarket.

For what it's worth, neither of my trucks use clips to hold the spark plug wires onto the coil, so it shouldn't be a big deal unless you notice the wire boots lifting off of the coil posts.

Yes I tried everything. I'm going to purchase a new coil pack. I'm Not sure if this is the original one. I'll see if that does it. Thanks
