66 toro wiring harness

I recently had a wiring harness meltdown. Had the wife and kids in the car going out to dinner and smoke started pouring out from under the hood. I am curious if any one has replaced their harness and where it was purchased.

Had something similar happen to mine several years back - harness rubbed against the a/c expansion valve and shorted out. At the time, I was able to cut out the ~3" of molten bad wiring and spliced everything back together with very high-end crimp connectors that have lasted to this day. Several years of searching have resulted in finding nobody who reproduces these. If you can find a junkyard car, and they're around, you can try cutting one out and splicing it in on yours as an alternative.

I have a complete meltdown of all wiring in the loom starting from my positive off my battery and alternator all the way to the fuse panel. Essentially I have to replace everything under the hood. My plan is to purchase a universal wiring harness. That will likely wait until spring. In the mean time, my wife seems to get a lot of pleasure teasing me about my 5000lb paper weight.

Lectric limited can redo the entire engine harness if the fuse block is still good. You need to send them one and they have the patterns for AC and non ac cars. I think it was about $500 but its been a while. Way better than a junkyard loom.
