Message	just a while ago and went to my car where I left it overnight. As i was inspecting to see what exactly happened, the coil connector coming from the main harness on the top right side of the plenum next the abs and clutch fluid was where it started. Looking closely, the fire happened their and it already fried the connector going into that 1st coil and fried the wire going into the 2nd coil right below it where the fuel dampener, regulator is (which ever exact part it is, but just to give u an idea where im talkin about). So that part of the harness to the coils are burnt and I hope it didnt do anything mechanically to the cylnders or engine itself. I just hope its an electrical issue. Any reasons why at that point of the harness it would burn and not somewhere else? Anybody with ideas?
