Finally got all the supplies to build the cables. Question on which wires go where in the rear engine tin. See attached image.
#1 - From engine bay photos it looks like the black wire from battery (positive) to starter goes through hole in the rear tin nearest the battery. Is is supposed to lay on top of the transmission? Are #2 and #3 routed correctly? (IMG:http://narino.com/images/starter%20wires.jpg) Thank you! |

IIRC, there is/are 1 or 2 small holes in that big rear tin that an OEM plastic clip attached to and thusly held the wire off trans. Don't want that cable rubbing anywhere! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
EDIT: I went back and found these pics. I couldn't or didn't locate the OEM clip. You can do this with a wider zip tie. Pics show both sides. No it doesn't pull through if you use a wide (^mm?) zip tie. |

A setback. After cleaning the fuse panel under the dash, I cracked one of the plastic legs off. Ughhhhhh!
I tried regluing with Tech-Bond, but it won't hold with the pressure of the wires. Anyone have a better bonding agent or method I could try? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I don't think I'll have her up and running for wcr. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |
