Not really. It fired right up - still does. But won't stay running. Had that problem yesterday, - would die immediately - but found the AFM connection to the black boot open. Fixed that and it would run longer, but as mentioned, it gets more and more ragged as it runs until it just quits. Ran perfect before the burnt wire incident. Now with the new harness - not so perfect. I looked the harness over thoroughly and there is no evidence of repairs. I did find one wire that seems to have no place to go. It comes out of the bundle just before the connector for the Hall sender. This wire has no connector on it. Can't tell where it might should go. Will have to study the electrical schematics tonight - see if I can find it. In the meantime - still wondering about this. John
