    hi guys, just a quick question, I changed my spark plugs on my 1grfe (it went well except)
    I accidently scored of the wires on the harness. Its not very big at all, I put some electrical tape over it , the truck runs great but I'm just worried about it getting wet. Is there something I can insulate it with? Any suggestions would be awesome!

    I've used a similar product before, its really handy to have, its a liquid rubber. If you got the spare $$ I'd pick up one in black, and one in red.

    I agree with @Jimmyh, This is your best option besides a wire replacement.

    Thanks man! Like I said. I don't think there's a chance of it getting wet especially of how hot engine bays get. I think I over react a little bit

    I melted one of the harness ground wires on an exhaust header. I did the same thing with liquid electrical tape. Worked well and its been a few years. I also put shrink tubing and one of those chinese finger trap type sheithings over it for extra protection.
