Had a bit of excitement. After four years got my 1970 240Z fully restored and on the road. After about 1 hour of driving had smoke in the cab from insulation burning on one of the primary power wires under the dash (see photo). I repaired the wire and added a new female spade connector and then proceeded to clean the connectors under the dash by the passenger kick panel (second photo) as well. I then reconnected the wire and ran the car and held the wire with my hand and noted it becoming hot. Tested resistance on the wires and they seem fine. Also, noted that when I turn on any item, lights, dome light, brake light, etc. the fuse clips related to that item also get warm. I checked all the fuses and then pulled them all except for the ignition fuse and experienced the same result; warm/hot charging wire. The primary wire from the alternator does not get hot nor does the wire to the starter/battery. At this point I am stumped and need some advise please.

Getting the engine bay ready for soda blasting and am replacing the engine harness. Im having trouble finding where the harness connects to. I can't find it on interior side of the firewall. Is this something I have to take the dash out to get to? I found some connections below the dash, but this seems to be to a different harness. Thanks guys -
Hello everybody, I removed my radiator hose/ water temperature sensor wire clip, recently hoping that someone out there with Z part-reproducing experience might be able to reproduce it. I know these tend to get brittle over time and snap, but mine is surprisingly pliable. I know that nissan makes a different clip to replace it, but for the sake of originality, it might be worth reproducing- especially after seeing some interest on another thread: http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?28549-where-can-i-get-these&highlight=wire+clamp This is the new one nissan currently makes (got image off ebay):
