Hello,

I bought a '94 c280 with 150k on it, in what appeared to be great condition, but in the 5 months since I bought it, I have found the engine wiring harness problem (deteriorated insulation, and the pre-buy inspection didn't catch it. I should have come to this site before buying it, although it was a great price.)

My ??: I can solder wires to connections. Is there any problem in me just replacing the wires with standard gauge wire? I can't afford a new harness right now($760.00) ....How hard is this job?...I've already relplaced the wires to the ignition coils to solve a miss....

Any advice / experience would be greatly appreciated....

Richard
