Stop in for a cup of coffee

Seriously a strange one did the bend the wires as far as we could still worked ok, would not doubt there is a area with just a few strands hanging on would love to have a TDR to check them.
Bad wire. Between pickup and ecu....resistance test on the 2 ecu terminals and pull,twist the wires.
If it happens again I will use wire tap connectors by the distributer and run bypass wires to the ecu without disturbing anything else.
