[W126 Coupe] Throttle body wiring question

[Mike R.]

Talbir's right (as usual). A friend of mine had BergWerks put a late model
560 engine into his 500SEC and it was the wiring that drove them nuts. It's
a lot of work to get it right, but worth it once it's done. He loves the '84
now with the 560 engine.

Speaking of wiring - what's the easiest way to get the plastic wire loom off
our wiring harnesses? I don't want to just use a knife for fear of nicking
the wiring but want to remove several components from several looms and add
some wiring (LS6 installation work). What about a thread ripper from my
wife's sewing cabinet? Does someone make a stronger version of such a tool?

Later,
Mike R.

Thanks Talbir

I guess the main reason for not transferring the wiring module across was
the difficulty incurred in removing the '87 wiring - but then, I pulled the
whole loom out - not just the engine related parts
