Aha, said Sherlock. Even I can see why that's a problem. Have you tried the little heat-shield booties on your plug wires? They will help keep them from melting, said the wicked witch of the west.
I have heat shields lol... the blue wires are just the cheaper napa wires. Threw another wire on there and ill try starting the beast when the baby wakes up.
Yea a guy local to me has a bunch of brand new smaller item parts for sale.
