Dang! Those little connectors are expensive! How neccessary is that
special too to take out the metal crimps? Does it make it a lot
easier? Isn't it just a small tab that you need to push down? We have
a real nice electronics store here that  has all those metal crimp
connectors, but I've never found anyone that has the plastic ends. Are
there standard sizes for those or what? My main concern are the wires
leading to the Hall Sensor. Two of them are cracked and I have them
taped up.

Definitely like those Posi-Lock connectors mentioned in that other
thread, and although that not really what I'm looking for, I'll
definitely keep them in mind.

What about replacing the entire wiring loom? Anybody stock or make
those? I've seen them for the air cooled vans. I imagine all my wiring
is becoming brittle...or maybe I'm just paranoid.

Thanks again for all your encouragement folks!
