NO, you should use high quality wire that resists heat etc. Do NOT use
ordinary wire from FLAPS or local hardware store.

I contemplated making a new FI harness some time ago and received a email
from another list member about some high quality wire. Checked them out on
the web and seemed like a great product to tackle the job with.... never got
around to it though.
