EZ EFI Wire routing...

[David_H]

I Just want to get advice before I finish the install on the way I'm running my wires...

I'm going to mount the ecu on the inner fender next to the battery and run the main harness from the frame to the motor branching off the o2 wires running over the starter to the o2 sensor. (the mini starter is only live during cranking) the rest of the harness is going to run up the front passenger side of the block under the A/C compressor to the center front of the intake manifold.Then all the sensor/injector wires will run in the gap of the rpm air gap manifold to the sensors/injectors. (is shouldn't get to hot in there right?) now can the Tach pick up wire run with in the cars main loom to the CD box mounted under the dash? Also the hand held controller wires can they run down with the o2 sensor wires next to the starter? I'm trying to hide as much of the wiring as I can.

The starter uses a lot of amps during cranking. May cause some problems during cranking. The starter itself may not cause a problem, but the big wire going to it is what I would worry about.

When in doubt, don't do it. At least give the harness 4 to 6 inches of air space.

Heat from the intake won't hurt anything.

As far as the tach wire goes, it really depends on what else is in the main loom. It is a "no go" if there is anything ignition related in it. Such as orange and black coil wires, main positive and negative CD box wires.

Ok thanks the orange and black Are not in there but the hot and ground for the cd box is... looks like I'm looking for a new route....
