The wire was disintegrated to the point that just brushing it with my finger broke it in half... any ideas on what could cause this at only 5,000 miles? Routine oil changes, with oil purchased from CSC. The engine got a little toasty there for a few trips when the thermostat broke. Seems like that wiring should be able to hold up to much more.
That looks brutal..... Was it hard to replace?
Glad the repair worked
