Title: burnt wiring for injectors 2.9V6
Post by rob_reznik on Aug 25^th, 2014, 10:39pm

put the engine back in the Limo yesterday and noticed some of the wires for the injectors were burnt out or should I say bare - not sure if there had been a short at some time or just that the wiring gets hot due to the location and the outer sleeving got brittle and broke off - any thoughts?
