JBLoudG20 Posted August 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Ouch, how'd it happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
en480c4 Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 The wiring clip on the firewall let go, letting the harness fall forward and rest against the exhaust manifold. Once it burned through the insulation, the 12 ga main ignition lead grounded out, and was glowing red hot. It went from there, lighting the insulation on fire, and melting the rest.

JBLoudG20 Posted August 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Ouch thats a shitty way to go. No fuse to save the power line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
en480c4 Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 No fuse. Ah, the joys of 1960's technology. I think there are a grand total of 2 inline fuses in the whole JEEP! Also just purchased, a new temperature sending unit and speedometer/cluster for it. I didn't want to do either before, but if I'm rewiring, why not?

JBLoudG20 Posted August 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Why don't you add a fuse? Would have saved your wiring, and who knows maybe your life had it happened a bit differently. Just my outlook, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Why don't you add a fuse? Would have saved your wiring, and who knows maybe your life had it happened a bit differently. Just my outlook, of course. It would have stopped it from shorting, yes, but the heat from the manifold did as much damage as anything else and the fuse wouldn't have stopped that a bit. The real lesson is that plastic clips suck. I don't think Ian will use them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that melted insulation was either one hell of a fire, or way too much current. Zip ties are my friend Good luck with the rewire. Been there, sucks!

en480c4 Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 They shipped out same day and FedEx delivered as promised. The only negative I had was they only had one of the 6FC7s, and I need 2. So they were just going to ship the one without contacting me. I caught it in time and cancelled that part of the order. But otherwise they seemed very good to deal with.
