Looks like I need to replace both the ignition and air pump wiring harnesses on my 87 SIII XJ6. Wondering if these are available from any vendor or is it better to just make up the harness myself?

 

Heck, I'd be tempted to just make new ones myself even if they ARE avaiable for purchase. They're pretty simple looms....plus you could use a higher grade sheathing and/or devise some re-routing to prevent heat damage in the future.

Anyhow....

I'm 99% sure that a couple outfits make a *fuel injection* harness for your car ($500 or so) but I'm not aware of anyone making any other looms for it.

Others will chime in

The good news is that the fuel inj. harness can be had for less than 500 -- contact the vendors directly (Welsh, etc.). I think mine was at most 350.

Check into shifting it up and away from the engine when you install -- try simply turning the retainers backward from their current installation. Air flow should keep the heat away.

The air pump harness you'll have to do yourself. Believe me I looked, but there's apparently none to be had. Just get some 5/8 heatshrink and build your own.

Engine harness is like 80-150 USD, variable.

 

I take it the ignition harness is what is commonly referred to as the engine harness. If so, I have seen those available. I'll drag out the soldering iron and make up my own air pump harness.

Thanks
