Paul, I understand that it is not normal, but what is faulty here?
what needs to be replaced?
I did the search prior to posting on similar symptoms but came up with an array of possibilities (OVP, harness, mass sensor, O2, etc.). Unfortunately
I am very short on time and money right now to start replacing those one by one. So need to narrow it down as much as possible.
Could an arcing wire mean bad insulation?

Brgds.
