    Your entire engine bay harness is in tired shape John. You'd reduce the risk of future troubles if you replaced it completely. Giz could swap it in a couple of hours, Eurospares stock them.

    Engine bay heat plus uncaring mechanics tearing plugs apart - it happens to most cars.

    One of the first things I do when restoring an older car.

    Eurospares has an F355 wiring harness to suit a motec modified car? Fascinating.

    Thanks Ian but the MOTEC has different wiring

    Gezim was going to be pencilled in to rewire the car in any case but he is currently flatout and I'll wait until he slows down.

    The ceramic coated headers have greatly reduced the heat so step by step the 355 will be perfect by the time of the FNR :)

    New fans going in shortly along with new parts for the air-con

    The idle is the best it's ever been and even Giz said it was better than his but now he knows how to get that smooth idle :)

    What a load of bs again

    Every time you get something done you tell us all it's idling and running better than ever. That can only mean that every time you do something to that car it's wrong. Doesn't add up.....and as judge Judy always says, if something doesn't make sense it's probably not true.

    Looked to me like a standard harness with wires not needed for the motec tied off.

    I'd be confident Giz could make the same changes to a new harness, the motec documentation is excellent and easy to follow.

    Thanks for the vote of confidence Ian.
    To be honest, JM’s engine harness isn’t as bad as it looks. It’s just dirty and untidy. The wiring is ok, just the plugs need some attention a couple of days would have the harness sorted out. As for the idle being better than mine, it is, but that has more to do with the Motec than anything else. The 2.7 systems always ran a bit ‘fluffy’.

    I think it's owned by a woke, virtue-signalling, US corporation with a powder-puff board, afraid of backlash from the self-righteous guardians of the new morality

    That's offensive. I feel triggered. I'm complaining to the mods.
