The 1985 cars have a wiring-harness problem, which results in the crumbling of the wire-insulation. Have you replaced your wiring-harness ? If not check each wire and make sure they are not shorting each other. Check under the intake-manifold area (where the IAC is located) as that's where the crumbling starts. Also check the wiring near the grey-connectors near the A/C dryer. Basically - check all the wiring in the engine first.
