well, i verified i have cracked wires all over the place (had to peel back the black shield around the wires a little bid to see).
thank you qaz and mystiquesvt for suggesting I check them!
the four wires going to the coil pack (not the plug wires, the other ones) have visible cracks, one has a small piece of insulation missing. two of the connectors on the top/rear of the engine have insulation missing where the wire goes into the connector, and cracks all over.
its a 95, and i currently have 70k miles. recall 99M03 right?
going to the dealer tomorrow. anybody have any suggestions on getting them to honor the recall?
i'll let you know how it goes, and what happens.
also i'm going to pull out the under the hood insulation when i get it back. i've read a few posts that say it traps in heat and dust, and i can stand a little extra noise.
You are more than welcome. Check out my webpage....then download the 99M03 recall on the bottom of the screen. Print it.....study it....and hightlight the part that says "that if bare wires are found they must be replaced" or something to that effect. Good luck! Oh...make sure you check the wires coming off of your battery. Check the wires that go to the fans on the very front. Check the wires that go behind the engine. The Fuel Charge harness connects into the Engine control harness on the left rear of the engine. Look at all those connections very, very carefully with a flashlight. FIND ALL BAD WIRES.....
Believe me when I say this....you DO NOT want to replace them yourself.
Good luck...PM me when you get them to look at it!
