Default Injector Wiring Harness DIY

I have such a bad set of injector wires that being brittle is causing for grounding out, crossover etc

I want to make my own......

Anybody done this themselves? How?

I made my own reference and speed sensor wiring harness a few summers ago. I can't imagine doing the injector wiring to be much different.

Here are the links:

Lindsey racing also sells a replacement harness:

Lindsey makes great products and are great folks to buy from. No doubt I may go that route....but being a die hard DIY guy I wanted to see where folks had bought the bosche type connectors and what gauge wire they used.

I will need to determine where the original point for these wires go....but I will trace.

They are so old and tired and I am fed up with my car not starting

Guys where can I buy the right connectors and which ones are they

I can't reccomend the LR harness enough. The DME/KLR pin # is printed on each wire at intervals along the whole length and it is literally plug and play. It also only takes maybe 30 minutes to install.

I spent quite some time repairing my harness and even bought another DME harness to use as a guide in making a new one, but once you get started you real how much work it is.

I will agree. I did this with Special Tool and it was easy and done in minutes.

Richard, the dealer can supply the pins and the connectors, I can get you the part #'s if you need. I just ordered a few to repair a 944S harness not long ago.

David Floyd - long time no see....
