installing the stock wiring harness
 
Anyone have any pointers on installing the stock harness. I'm to the point where the rats nest is going down and I just can't get shyt to fit together.

I searched, but couldn't find what I was looking for?

Assuming you're replacing you harness with a new one, take lots of pictures with a digital camera if possible. label the connectors with numbers and masking tape. As far as the rats nats goes. I would just go non-sequential and be done with it.

This is where the mechanics get seperated from the want-a-bees.
Intuition and skill are required here.

What exactly is not fitting together?

The FSM has the wiring harness routing in a diagram. I've posted a JPEG of the image here before but the search function is waiting on the forum upgrades to find it. :)

I had some fun fitting the harness in the area where it passes around the LIM and across the injectors.

These should help:

Take your time, don't break anything.

Thanks, I havn't broken anything, yes its a new harness, to late to mark everything but thats not an issue, I know where all the plugs, um plug into.

Its made harder by the fact that I wrapped the entire harness with heat tape, making it a good 2mm thiker, everywhere.

I am a decent mecanic/fabricator this is just something I shouldn't have tackled at midnight after 8 corona's.

But no harm done and thaks for the links.

Its too early for Cinco de Maio, mang. Lay off the Coronas for a couple more days :)

Give a shout if you need a hand. I'm local.
