Wire harness FYI 200 89

posted by  someone claiming to be Haroon on  Sat Apr 14 15:54 CST 2001 [RELATED]

On an 89 with 175K found the wire harness (little above the oil trap) being worn down by the rear engine lift ear (bracket for pulling engine out). This is connected towards the firewall with the intake manifold studs. Caught this in time, removed the support bracket and retaped the wire harness. The harness was probably rubbing against it and wore down the protective plastic and began 'chewing' away one of the wires. Permently removed the lift bracket.

Trend?
