If funds allow for it, go ahead and change the wire loom while you are under the valve covers. Good luck!

Gracias!
I picked up a set of UVC gaskets with the wire looms. I'll OHM both harnesses through the 9 pin connectors to see if the one's I have installed are still good and keep the new one's for backup. We'll see tonight.

Yeah this forum doesn't have the "keyboard trucker's" with bigger ego's than brains like some other forums have.

As for the rodents, having 3 kids is NUTS! worth it but nuts. I've learned my lesson though, I modified "nature's way" last month no more suprizes for this guy. I see my kids as expensive pets, it helps LOL.

Back on topic, I pulled my wiring harness that lays over the motor from the 39 pin connector to all the sensors. I did this for ease of maintenance. I'm going to inspect it all and clean the oil off of it. Is there anything in particular I should pay close attention to while inspecting it? Before I wire it all back up I'll spray out all the connectors with contact cleaner and lube them up with die-electric grease.

Ah... the Hatch mod. I know it well. 3 and done here as well.

Anywho, back on topic. Inspect everything for chafing, burning, melting, corrosion, etc.... Good job on cleaning and using dielectric grease.
