I noticed yesterday that the reinforced area surrounding the boot on the ICU side was frayed. I also noticed that as I handled the wire, the RPM would rise and fall. Upon further observation, the reinforcement completely fell apart exposing some bare wire and I noticed that the boot itself was also cracked. Temporarily, I taped it all up really tight.
Since I've been having an intermittent, heat-related problem with poor acceleration, missing, sputtering, can't accelerate over 40 etc. I thought this must certainly be a factor, if not the cause itself.
I tried to look online to see what I might order but the closest I came was to a "condenser wire" and I'm pretty sure my car doesn't have one and if it did, everyone snips those off anyway. It is green though, just like this one.
Obviously, I'm looking to replace this wire whatever it's called, ASAP. Thanks!
