coil pack question
just got my car back together and it started right up. But I noticed that after about 10 min the engine bay was smoking (after the initial rebuild smoke). I turned it off and I saw that the wire going to the rear trailing coil was smoking. I looked at it closer and the clip was melted. I had spliced a new clip on there but I dont know why it would be getting so hot. I know the large wire has two layers so my question is do the two layers have to remained separated? i have spliced alot of wires and this has never happened to me.

the outer layer is a shield wire(ground). if u mix the two wires, you will smoke the harness. since you already need a harness order a new one for a 95. this doesn't have the ground(shield wire)in it.
