I am looking for a source for a front wire harness for a 1980 Triumph TR8. Does anyone know where I can find one already made? I am not new to Triumphs, but before getting this TR8, I have only seen them in pictures. I am very excited to work on this car and to get it back on the road. I was laying under it, just getting to know it, when I noticed an exposed wire by the catalytic converter. I pulled the cat off, and expose the wires so I could see what the deal was. It seems that there is a bunch of heat generating from the cat and sending it up towards this wire harness. It has heated it up so many times, and for so long, that it haas made the wire sheathing very brittle and has even burned some of the wires through completely. We have only tried to turn this car over one time for a few seconds with nothing going to the fuel filter. The electric fuel pump does not even turn on. I am suspecting that this wire harness is the problem. If it is not, it is a good place to start repairs on this beauty. If you can help, let me know...Thank you!

I believe the portion of the harness involved that includes the starter, oil pressure sensor and ultimately power feed to the fuel pump is available. I think one of the vendors is British Wiring (http://www.britishwiring.com/). You can likely peruse the archives (link below) and find plenty of info - part # etc.Some folks have come up with various ways to protect the wiring after the repair. Good luck,Matt AGE RES PROPRIAS TUAS ---------- Original Message ---------- From: Shawn Frank To: "buick-rover-v8@autox.team.net" Subject: [Buick-rover-v8] TR8 front wire harness Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2012 12:00:42 -0800 (PST) I am new to this email list, so please excuse my ignorance.
