This worked for me:  I applied shrink-tubing over the entire length of the h=
arness. This took care of the frayed/missing cloth. Next, I stripped the coa=
ting from a length of #12 copper wire that exceeded the length of the stator=
 tube. I then ran this wire with a very heavy fishing line taped to the end u=
p the tube. I then removed line from the wire and pulled copper wire out of t=
he tube. Next, I attached the fish line to the wiring harness and applied ta=
lcum powder to the entire length of the harness before pulling it through th=
e tube.  Worked flawlessly for me. (=E2=80=9862 BT7)
