The V8 Owners Forum -

I'm in the middle of fitting hotwire efi to my SD1, it's running and needs final plumbing and tidying. In the loom, the multiplugs to the stepper motor and water temp probe have broken, but not enough to fall off. Is there anywhere that sells new multiplugs, or is it a case of finding a good second-hand plug and splicing it in?

post a picture of the plugs.

Excellent, that's exactly what I'm after

Once I've got it running a bit better I'll be ordering a few bits from there, tidy up a few of the connections where they've seen some action over the years!

I've seen the stepper motor plug for sale too - probably at a MegaSquirt etc dealer.

Oooh you're s star!

Now I've seen kits are available, it's tempting to look into cutting the loom back a bit to fresher wire all round whilst losing all the dead wires I don't need, make it into a slightly neater installation in my SD1

The cable used on a hotwire (thinwall) doesn't tend to crack like the thicker stuff used on a flapper SD1.

Yes, it does appear to be far greater quality than the old flapper stuff I used to have, some of the wires I removed from the loom are still nice and flexible.

I've done a few little bits to the loom and installation and it now runs straight from cold with minimal if any hunting at idle, I now wonder why I never pursued hotwire in the first place! There's a few hardened and broken bits of insulation by some of the plugs which I'll sort at a later date with new plugs, for now just want to get some miles on it again
