Hi Guys
I am faced with a bit of a dilemma.
The engine wiring harness on my 1996 5.7 Gi TBI is losing its insulation faster than I'm losing my hair.
The correct V/p harness as well as the 4.3 harness which can be used with slight mods are NLA.
What I am wondering is if a Mercruiser harness for a TBI system from that time frame can be adapted to work.
The main concern is whether or not the two large harness connectors will attach to the existing
V/p ECM.
i am aware of some of the differences between the V/p and Merc. systems.
From what I understand some European automotive wiring harnesses are being manufactured to be biodegradable. I suspect this may be the case as I haven't seen Mercruiser harnesses in this bad of shape.
I would hate to have to remove the TBI and resort to a carburetor.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank
Jon Allen
