Well, I decided to take a closer look at all the wires under the hood of the old V12 this weekend. I had pulled off the passenger side cover to check on something, and noticed small cracks in some of the wires. Closer examination showed five wires cracking along their entire length. These wires connect to the passenger side throttle actuator. Carefully cutting the sleeving away revealed badly cracked insulation. Very scary. I cut off the passenger side throttle connector, and working very carefully with a razor blade, I was able to pry the connector halves apart. The point where all the wires bundle tightly into the connector was really bad. I'm going to patch this up temporarily with new teflon insulated wire until I can figure out which harness p/n this is. It's not the harness for the injectors, that one looks brand new. It's odd, it's only these five wires that look bad. I'm certain the drivers side is the same, so that'll be next. Take a look at the pics...
