I replaced the wiring harness. Sheesh, I thought there was nothing worse than replacing the heater core. As an amateur, I must say that it now has a rival: replacing the wiring harness.
It has taken me hours, and hours. I took off the intake manifold to see what I was doing. Well, in the process of moving the manifold out of the way, I managed to yank out every air/vent line inside the engine compartment. When one popped off, I just told myself. .yeah, I'll remember where that one goes.. Well not.

I have the Bentley Bible, I have Haynes.. But I have few clues to where even the flame trap should go, believe it or not.

I'm going to look at a friend's '86 244 tomorrow (I hope) to get some clues.

I admit it.. It was a dumb thing to do.

Any suggestions on where to look to find information/diagram/photos of the hoses would be greatly appreciated. By the way, the wiring was replaced slowly and methodically.. and correctly. I'm without a car 'til i get this one on the road.. my daughter is using my 240 wagon for now. It's great being a parent, isn't it?

Thanks in advance for advice, etc. Feel free to remind me what an idiot I am. I deserve it.

Larry
