I replaced all the worst offenders on the harness of my 86 240 by cutting out the bad, and splicing in with auto grade 16ga wire, soldering new connectors, using heat shrink tubing to seal the ends and then re-covering the whole mess with hi-temp spiral wrap. I fully intended to just have it make do until I could get a new or better harness and replace the whole thing. But it has been fine for a while now and has not seemed to get any worse.She starts and runs fine even in the cold ( knock on wood, top of head), and the front struts and rear suspension bushings have moved up and passed it on the the must do list.
