Can someone give me a diagram or just tell me how to fix this mess. I bought the truck a couple months ago and can't keep it running. Now we think we have found the problem but I have no idea where to start to fix it.

It's a 95 360 if that helps. Passenger side around the fuel injectors

now that is some very bad wiring by the previous owner.:superhack:

Best thing to do would be cut out that mess and reattach each wire one by one(like color to like color), I know there is a manual to download on this site if that helps.
I have a 2000 otherwise Id try and help out with pics
Best of luck and pics if you redo it.


edit, it could be grounding out on something. if that crazy connection is good just tape it all up.

I know it looked awful but I've got most of it looking a lot better

Jesus Christ. I've seen some hacked up wiring but so far THAT takes the cake.

Do what DodgeTx said, rip it all apart and splice it back together by color (and pray it works).

It was pretty bad but I've got most of it straightened. But it still kills out if I hit a bump or wiggle the wires. I just can't find the bad connection

One of the wires is probably broke where you can't see it then.
