Hello list,

So i'm looking at making a new wiring harness for my
van and the megasquirt, and am debating between going
2 routes:

1) use the stock harness and simply add on new
connectors at the end.  This will keep the stock look,
will match up with bently diagrams, etc., but will
still have 20 year old wires and ECU connector in it.

2) create a new harness from scratch, only reusing the
ECU connector.  Just looking at what is locally
available, though, that'll probably mean all the wires
will be one or two colours, and likely not have as
clean an execution because i won't be able to find all
the sizes of heat shrink i need, etc.

The crux of my question is: how bad to wires in the
engine compartment get after 20 years?  I did a quicky
pin/ohm test and was getting around 1ohm between the
two pin connectors and main ECU connector.  Is this
acceptable?  (as you can tell, i'm not an electrical
guy).

Thanks,
-Damon
