Thanks all for the wiring harness fix replies.  I
decided to pull it apart, check the wires and do a
continuity test.  The only "melted" wire is appears to
be the one that runs through the loop behind the tach.
 There is a plastic wire keeper that hold the white
wire in a loop.  I need to replace this wire.  I
assume the loop is needed to make the tach function?
(I dunno, the tach hasn't worked since I have owned
the car).  
Dumb question #2 - In checking for continuity I use my
analog electric multi tester in ??? "ohms"?? mode? 
And if the needle moves far I have good continuity and
if I moves only a tad or not at all I have bad
continuity? 

Thanks,
Chris
