During install of upgraded heavy duty battery cables (thanks @Fourrunner !) the brittle sheathing around some of the wires near the oil filter broke off (see pic). I have two questions:
1) any concerns with leaving the wire exposed
2) I am about to begin waterproofing my wire harness & connectors w/ dielectric grease...now I am concerned I will encounter similar brittleness/breakage as I go about this arduous task. Would it be wise to replace the whole harness while I’m in there or am I going to wish I had left it alone?
waterproofing is in preparation of some upcoming trips to the ozarks with several water crossings.
thanks MUD
